4wd Z71 wheel size
Hello-All the charts I can find on Wheel sizes show all 2006 1/2 ton silverado's can use a 16 inch wheel. I tried a factory 16 inch GM Wheel and it would not fit in the front because of the size of the brake calipers. The rears fit fine. I have a 4wd with Z71. I really like some 16 inch wheels for sale locally, but don't want to have to try one on first. Thought I would try this forum. Thanks
some may need 17 inch rims to fit over brakes
Not the 06 Z-71's they have bigger brakes on the front than other GMT-800 series trucks.
mines a 05 silverado with 17's looks good tooo
hi i have a 2010 silverado as will i wanted to use a 16 inch wheel and its won't fit . some people do reduce the size of the brakes by cutting it and i didn't do that but i saw a lot of cares did that and they are saying everything working properly i wish i find a 16 inch wheel fits to my car without any changes in the brakes

I have a 2006 and factory tires were 17 ' s . You can also go up one size ---- to 18's like I have for summer use... I wouldn't recommend 16's for a truck.....
Has anyone tried grinding the calipers?
Yes I have and its sketchy and not safe to do so. I have a 2000 Silverado and im trying to put 15" wheels on it and it keeps rubbing on the inside of the rear wheels. So I tried grinding down the calipers about 2-3cm and it still seems to rub. If i go any further it will become a safety hazard. I ordered 1" spacers to see if it will give enough clearance but it is still really close. I think 16"-17" wheels is the minimum you can go.
i had to sand my calipers a hair to fit aftermarket 17s and i took off factory 17s wtf ? with them big ass brakes Im thinking they were set up for 20s mine is 2006 Z71
I have a 1963 chevy k10 4x4 I was wondering if a 15x10 6x5.5 wheel fit.
Jon_rg do you have pictures of how your caliper looks right now cause I wanna fit 16s but I don’t know how much to grind off
I have a 01 Tahoe z71 4wheel drive, I have 16s on the front and rear but want to pay 15s on but won't fit on the front and calaiber would I need to do that?
Will 18 inch rims off a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado z71 fit on a 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500
2010 with 20s
