15'' rim on 14bolt

[82k20]

okay guys ive got a question about 15'' rims on a 14bolt. i was given a set of 15'' ''saw blade rims'' that have brand new dakota definity tires my k20 needs rims and tires so my question is can i make these rims fit the k20 what kind of mods will i have to do now my 14 bolts are 8 lug and my rims are 6 lug any ideas on a spacer that would work or do i need to swap out axle shafts my uncle passed away and my aunt gave me the rims i would love to use them on the k20 mainly because he was the one that started me on cars. any help would be appreciated.

If your 14 bolt is a full floater will a spacer clear the hub? Also will a spacer space it out far enough for the rim to clear the brake drum? I would measure the inside of the rim and the diameter of the brake drum..

If you're handy enough, some GMT400s had SF 14 bolt 6 lug axles.

ive been doing a bit of searching and i have not been able to find a 6 lug 14 bolt around here. Mine has a 14 bolt sf front and rear. ive been told that the spacer idea is a bad one i was told they arent very durable

It would be a 10 bolt front.

Spacers really aren't bad, but the adapters you are thinking of usually are a bad idea. You will just need to get 8-lug rims.

yeah that was my bad bucket i got in a hurry and miscounted it is a 10 bolt front did they ever offer a 14 bolt front

Nope, there was the 10 bolt, the Dana 44, and then the Dana 60 was used in 1 tons.
