Bolt Pattern change

I wanna run 5 bolt Corvette Rally wheels on my 57.

This means new front hubs and a new rear end or axles.
Any advice on the potential rear end swap ?
What will fit? Posi would be nice if I am swapping the rear. Or can I just do an axle swap .... ?

What about front ,,,Any advice would be appreciated, this truck needs to be done by 2005 !

Thanks

Between the ditches,, rubber side down !

 

There is a company that makes a 6 bolt rally and can use the same cap and ring..

 

5 lug front hubs from 53-54 Chevy car are a direct replacement for the stock 6 lug 1/2 ton truck hubs. I am not positive that the bolt cicle is the same as the Corvette wheels, but I think it is.

 

just for your info, Chevy made 6 lug rally wheels, I have 4 of them in 10 inch width, they are on my '58 1/2 ton.

 

RE%3A Bolt Pattern change

Attached is a picture of the mid-70's 6 lug Chevy 4x4 (rally?) wheels I have on my 57 GMC. The knock offs were less than $20 for the set of four and have a 1/4" threaded hole on the back side. The "4x4" cover on the hub cap is light weight aluminum and already has a 1/4" hole underneath it. I paid about $25 for the set of four trim rings.

OK, I'm too dumb to figure out how to do an attachment.

If you are interested contact me at

and I'll send the pictures.

 

Thanks for the feedback,, but Can you find me those "cheap" 6 bolt rallys ?

I have a set now,, but they are not the same a corvette 15 x 8 rims ?

I can sell the vette ones and buy 6 bolt if anyone is interested ?
