1989 GMC Safari Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
The 1989 GMC Safari mounts wheels on a 5x127 bolt pattern and rolls from the factory on fifteen-by-six wheels with a twenty-millimeter offset. You can upgrade to larger diameters and widths—fifteen-by-six-point-five, fifteen-by-seven, fifteen-by-eight, sixteen-by-seven-point-five, sixteen-by-eight, seventeen-by-eight, twenty-by-ten, twenty-by-twelve, and twenty-two-by-ten are all compatible. Since this van runs square fitment, the same setup works front and rear.
Your Safari requires the 5x127 bolt pattern—no other pattern will fit. The hub-centric bore measures 77.8 millimeters; if your wheel's center bore is larger, use hub-centric rings to ensure a safe, vibration-free ride. Pushing too wide or too aggressive on offset can invite fender and suspension contact, so verify offset specs before ordering.
