I am considering buying a 91 GMC 1 ton van and I was trying to browse some wheels for it and I can't find a website that lists these vans. Is there some reason for that? Are they hard to fit custom wheels on? Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks for the pics. Did these vans come with 16.5 inch wheels? If that is the case maybe that's why I cant find any info on wheels sites. The 16.5's seem to have been outlawed or something. I cant even find tire listings. Guess I'll have to stop by a tire store.

I see you have to search the size instead of the vehicle. Do you happen to know the stock tire diameter size? Do you think these tires would fit? (*255/55R18 109S Terra Grappler) or (*255/60R18 112S)
Thanks

I found this info: 8.75-16.5, diameter 29.40, cross section 8.8, tread 7.
9.50-16.5, diameter 31, cross section 9.6, tread 7.5

I guess that answers my question.
