Will 6 lug truck wheels fit the front of a D-17?

IDK, but some wheels from a Buick will.......maybe late 70s? Had them on my first D17, a Series I. Fatter than original, took the weight better. Make a cardboard pattern and check salvage yards.

My Series II D-17 uses the same 5 lug wheel as my WD and WD-45s. The bolt pattern is the same as many GM full size cars. Finding one with a large enuf pilot hole is the biggest problem.
My Dad had '36 (I think) 16" Olds wheels on his WD.
Maybe the Series IV D-17 has the 6 lug wheels?

I have never found a 6 lug truck rim that would bolt yo any tractor or equipment for that matter. The common 6 lug Chev rim will not fit any tractor that I have ever seen and yep tried it more then once on more then one brand of tractor

I think so.

My Dad put wheels from and old Nash car(40s model I think) They bolted right on.
