Pickup trucks like the Silverado are the most versatile vehicles on Earth. With dozens of body configurations, about as many drivetrain options and plenty more in the suspension and accessory department, these trucks can be anything to anybody. However, that's no guarantee yours will come with the right rims for your needs.
The Silverado came with two different wheel bolt patterns, depending on whether it was a half-ton 1500 model or a 2500-and-up series. The lighter truck used six-bolt wheels measuring 5.47 inches -- aka 5.5 inches, or 139 mm -- from the center of one hole to the center of the one across from it. The 2500 used eight-lug wheels measuring 6.5 inches -- 165 mm -- from the center of one hole to the center of the one across from it.
