[QUOTE="4silverado, post: 16805, member: 428"] late 2019 / early 2020. My truck originally had steel wheels. I'd been on the lookout for a set of 16/17/18 take offs or a good set of aftermarket rims. I ended up finding a set of 04 Sierra Z71 wheels and GMC center caps for $40 on Facebook Marketplace. Rims turned out to be in very good shape. Where I had totaled my 03 Silverado, I still had the center caps and lug nuts from that truck. Since the tires on mine were bald and wouldn't have made it through winter, I decided to upsize the tires from 245/70-16 to 255/70-16; originals were 235/75-16. Tire came out to be 1/4 taller than stock and roughly 3/4 inch wider, and corrected the speedometer error. To make the Silverado centers work with the Sierra wheels, I had to shave the tabs on the back of the lug nut caps 1/4 inch and use the Silverado lug nuts. Original is red line; cut line is green. Now center caps sit flush inside the wheel. [ATTACH alt="20191026_152755.jpg"]769[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="20191228_172408.jpg"]770[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="20200102_165958.jpg"]771[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
