The tires on the Yukon are gettting close to needing to be replaced finally (after 3 years of driving), and I want to upgrade to some larger wheels when I get new tires. Do it all at once and it's easier to fly it under the radar of the "budget committee" :D :D

I've seen a set on two different GMC trucks that I REALLY like. I think they are 20's but have only seem them in traffic, so I can't confirm. I can't find them ANYWHERE on the net. I've google searched, I've searched here, I've been scouring eBay and Craigslist as well, and I can't find 'em. I know they exist though, I've seen them twice in "real life"

Basically they are a chrome wheel with what appear to be 6 "spokes". Each spoke has two thin "fingers" in it. They were really good looking wheels, and one of them appeared to be on a new Sierra at the local dealership sales lot.

If anyone has any idea where I can find these wheels, I would greatly appreciate it.

Did you ask the dealer? Might be a GM wheel, since it was on a new Sierra. Go to GM's website look at the wheel options for the Sierra/other models. And try GM "accesories" they offer more wheel options there.

I think i know what wheel your talking about. I will post a pic if I find them. I have seen them on trucks.

I have been in the dealership and asked them. As well as nosed around on the website as best I can. I found a picture yesterday of some that I thought were correct, however they were 18x8's and I would've sworn the ones I've seen were 20's at least. The picture also had plastic over the wheels, and that distorted the shape enough I'm not certain they were the right ones.

I think these might be them, but of course I'm not 100% certain. Are these the ones you had in mind?

I think those are the ones I was thinking of...they look a little different in the pic.....if that are the wheels, they look better in person.

There is a guy in town that has them on his GMC truck. I know they are not 20's. I would guess 17 or 18's

The site has them listed as 18x8's.......Not sure if that is enough wheel on my truck or not. Going to check tire replacement cost as well while I'm at it. if the 18's are a ton cheaper than the 20's I might just get these, if not I'll find a set of GM 20's that I like.

I know the 16's on there now are HORRIBLE, and need to go. WAY to much "marshmallow" feel when towing. I'm 90% certain it's from the relatively soft sidewalls. Previous owner put "p" tires on it instead of the "LT"s that it really needs.
