Hey Guy's I just got a set of 35's on Chevy 6 lug steel wheels, it looks like the person that had them before me widened the center to fit them on a truck with bigger hubs now that I’m putting them back on a Chevy there's about a 1/4in gap around the hub and wheel. Would it be safe to just run the truck with those wheels or should I start looking for some new ones?

I guess, you should start looking for the new ones zach, as it is just not safe at all.
