moog5050 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 They should both be a 5.5" lug pattern. Not sure about offset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy K Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I found this doing a quick Google search , I couldnt find 98 but 98/99 there was the split year for the new model and could be why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably makes no difference unless close then there could be rubbing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy K Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 You wouldnt think it would be so hard to find the stock wheel offset . It's like a closely guarded secret it seems . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even so there seems lots of room and 10mm is pretty small if that’s even correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meatball Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 (edited) Go to a gm forum and search. I have found info before for my 08 sierra that way. 10 mm doesn't sound like an offset. So small of a measurement. I can measure my spare if needed. It's. 17" steel wheel. In my bed because of course the under bed storage crank siezed up on me. I also have a cracked factory alloy I came measure for you. Let me know. Edited December 21, 2021 by Meatball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdbing Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I have 2018 wheels off a Silverado on my 2008 Chevy Avalanche. So should fit.Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdbing Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 If you were closer you could have my old 17" wheels. Would not be worthwhile to ship.Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatball Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Just measured my spare. 5.5" of backspacing. Not sure if that's what's you mean by offset. I assumed that it was what you were asking about in earlier post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
