1987 GMC G1500 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1987 GMC G1500 Rally, Rally STX, or Vandura uses a 5x127 bolt pattern. The factory wheel measures 15x6 with an 11mm offset. You can step up to 15-inch wheels ranging from 6 to 8 inches wide, or move to 16 or 17-inch sizes in widths from 7 to 7.5 inches. Since your van runs square fitment, the same size works front and rear.
The 5x127 bolt pattern is your only compatible pattern for these trucks. Your 77.8mm hub bore requires hub-centric rings if you choose a wheel with a larger center bore—this ensures proper fitment and balance. Avoid wheels with offsets significantly more aggressive than stock, as wider and offset-heavy setups can interfere with your fender lips and suspension components.
Every wheel we offer for your G1500 is verified to bolt on and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. We stock Black Rhino, Dirty Life, Carolina Forged, Fuel 1PC, Icon Alloys, Vision, 9Six9 Wheels, and LOCK OFFROAD options that fit your van perfectly.
