Hemtt vs combat vs normal rim identification?

[SandBar]

Hunting for 2 more combat or hemtt rims for my m817. Could use an example photo of each and how I can easily make sure a rim is either hemtt or combat (and not a non bud style rim). Been searching on marketplace and don't want to waste any sellers time. Thanks!

What type of rim is this one?

Looks like an LMTV rim and probably only has bud style on one side. Combat rims have 10 bolts, LMTVs have 20 and I believe Hemitts have 17.

I appreciate the explanation. That means this is not a combat rim?

That's appesrs to be an LMTV rim. They work on 5ton trucks.

Here's another one -

Here's what hemtt rims look like -

It's not an LMTV rim. I'm not certain what it is. I suspect that it is some flavor of MRAP rims and not compatible with 5ton trucks.

That's correct.
It's a HD 20×10" 20bolt 2pc steel wheel with a 10-on-335mm center, used on some of the MRAP models.

So 16 bolt is hemmt, 10 is combat. Now I just need to find some around GA

For better comparison, see the dimensions and details, here...

Great info, thanks. I read this :

"you will need to change you wheel studs or do thimbles on the from if you run HEMMT's."

Now I am confused. I need to change my wheel studs to run them up front?

My understanding is that the 809 and older trucks used shorter wheel studs up front.

 

[gringeltaube]

Studs should always protrude a couple threads, sticking out of the nut.

Both halves of the HEMTT wheel have their own center plate, about 10mm thick. Bolted together it's over ¾", a lot more than the thickness of the stock 5ton wheel center.

So the original stud ends up being about ¼" too short.

 

[SandBar]

Interesting. Any idea where I could get studs for my old truck and what the part number might be? Terrible to replace studs on these?

Dang..didn’t notice the different centers on that first rim. I’d just put combats or LMTVS on the front. You just can’t turn quite as sharp as with the Hemitts

For a MRAP Husky mine detector. No bueno for a 5 ton.

How do I identify LMTVS rims?

 

[Jbulach]

Probably the best pic of a combat wheel I have, if you can see past all the junk on it?

 

[Jbulach]

Heres a better pic of a combat wheel off a 5 ton. Take the measurements I have on there with a grain of salt, as they where rough with a tape measure.

How do I identify LMTVS rims?

Center has 10 chamfered holes on a 11¼" BC. 18 long and 2 short studs.
It's your picture in post #4 and 98G's in the following post.
