Fitting wheels on a Chevrolet C10

A Chevrolet C10 (1973–1987) uses a 5x127 PCD and a centre bore of 78.1 mm. Any wheel must match the vehicle's PCD exactly: there is no tolerance, unless you use a PCD adapter.

  • PCD: 5x127 required. See all vehicles with 5x127.
  • Centre bore: the wheel must have a centre bore of 78.1 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 78.1 mm.
  • Fixings: thread Ecrous - 1/2 - 20 UN, tightened to 135 Nm. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
  • Tyres: original fitment is 195/75R15. For another size, check the diameter difference with the equivalence calculator (under 3 % recommended).

Vehicles with the same PCD and centre bore

Same 5x127 PCD and same 78.1 mm centre bore: wheels from these vehicles bolt on and centre on a Chevrolet C10 without rings. Offset, width, diameter and caliper clearance still need checking.
