PS, not sure if it bothers you or not, but you can get little snap in chrome caps to fill the extra 5 holes from the 5 on 4 3/4" bolt pattern too.. Where do I get those at?

wasn't so bad after all was it ? i can assume you rotated the assembly after installation to make sure nothing [the bolt head] hit internally ? the bolt heads shouldn't have been any higher than the rivet heads, but you never know. check the bolts aren't backing out the next couple of times you have the tire/wheel off for what ever reason just to make sure. enjoy your new wheel combo ! [looks good by the way ! ] the old slots may be salvageable by using a reamer of the correct size to fit the shank style lugs that were intended for them, or someone could make them into a "10 bolt"[4 3/4" GM pattern] wheel.now continue to use the truck to haul materials for your shop renovation ! keep us up to date on that project too ! e No rotating issues with the bolt heads, the shouldn't back out, I used red Loctite on them before torquing them down

About .20 less around here
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.
