Rockstar wheels
the aftermarket rims usually fit over the 5/8ths studs that are found on our trucks, the problem comes in when you put them on the back, as we have "coined" rims, you can either take a die grinder to cut some grooves for the coined portion of the rear wheel to fit into the aftermarket rear dually wheels, or you can grind off the "coined" portion on the steel rim.
I'm sure some others will chime in w/ some more helpful info, but that's what i've found out about putting aftermarket rims on these 350 trucks.
On my own project i ordered some 9/16ths studs to replace the 5/8ths as they are more readily found and offer more options for wheels and cheaper lug nuts. there's not an exact "drop in" or "replacment" stud that I've found, so i found some that are close and will drill out for a press fit when i get home.
