Replacement Wheel Questions

[mayhem]

I have a 2006 Trailblazer LS EXT with 6 lug 17" wheels. One of the wheels has recently cracked and no longer holds air. I was thinking I'd just get a set of 17" of craigslist or EBAY from a Silverado or Tahoe but I figured I better make sure GM actually did something really smart like make the bolt patters the same on ALL the 6 lug trucks.

So the question is, what OEM wheels can I buy that will fit my truck? Are the TB's unique or do they share common bolt patterns with other models and makes? I know I can use 8 lug Dodge wheels on my 3/4 ton Silverado, anything like that for the TB or am I better off hitting a boneyard? I 150, any channce they might actually fit?

arent the sames

The TB bolt pattern is 6/127 (6 x5)
The wheel bolt pattern for the silverado is 6-139 (6x5.5)

You'd need adapter to fit them.

i have an 06 trailblazer lt 4wd and that year they did not make the 18*8 wheels, is it possible to put 08 or 09 18*8 chrome wheels on it? i have the 17*7 on it right now

yes, the rims off of a newer TB will fit

I ran into the same problem with a cracked wheel so I figured what a perfect time to get new wheels. I bought wheel adapters so I can have a better selection but am stuck. I have an 04 Ls that had 16in wheels on it and the spacers I got are 1.5in thick so what back spacing am I looking for I have no idea?!?!?!?

i found a set online for about 280 per wheel, so i can sell mine for about 200 a wheel this way the entire job will only be like 200 bucks in the long run, only problem is id have to get new tires now because the ones i have are only for 17x7 not 18x8

Hi all there are many people are want to change the wheels but company is main problem and i think Yokohama this company are famous for wheels.

Yokohama makes tires, not wheels...at least as far as I know.

I lucked out and picked up a set of 17" chrome wheels off an Envoy for $175 and they look great on the truck. Missing one hubcap, but thats an easy EBay fix.

Does anyone have a need for up to three of the old 17"s? They're perfectly good, no tires on em...a bit dirty but they'll clean up very nicely.
