First we need to know wether it is a full bolt or a partial and what type pattern (plaid etc) Then we can figure out a correct pattern to cut for Shirt or pants  ;)  See what lack of specific information leads too  W%  Frank

They used several bolt patterns, the most common were 8 on 6 1/2 with the 16.5 and 16 inch wheels and the 19.5 wheels used a ten bolt on the back and a five bolt on the front. Same wheels front and back. I don't know the circle size on them though. Make sure you have the lug nut spacer ring if you have the 19.5's and make sure it is on the outside under the lugnuts. Sometimes these end up between the wheels in the back or thrown out altogether leaving coned lugs against flat rims.

I have the five bolts up front style so that's 5 on what? And the rear would be 10 on what? They are the 19.5s I can find rims it's a rim pile for close to free

You are looking for 10 bolt 19.5" rims. They will all be the same pattern. Be sure you have the option to return them and then take them to a tire place and have them spin the rim on their balancer to see if it is straight. I have replaced 4 of mine and two of the replacements were bent, just not as bad as the originals. That is 6 bent rims so far. I have another RV that I hope has at least 4 straight ones on it.

The ten and five bolt are the same rim, the front just uses half the lugs.

Oh OK didn't even realize that now I'm gonna have to go look at it cause I don't remember seeing more holes on the front rims


This is what I'm working with:

Are the fronts just flipped around from the rear rims Hm? How are they the same?

You are looking at the simulators, hubcaps. Get some soft grip pliers or even your fingers if you have strong hand and pull the lug nut covers off the lug nuts. The you see the lug nuts themselves, they hold a ring that holds the main part of the hubcap on. There are only four lugs that hold the ring on but it is tough to tell which ones. Basically when you take the lug nuts off you will get the center cap, the main cap, the lug nut adapter, and then the wheels. And yes, the rears are one facing in and one facing out. The fronts are both facing in. You will understand as soon as you look at the spare.
