OBS 4wds were 6 lug, and he has a Z71, so they'll fit.

nope, 4wd are 6 lugs on OBS. easy to tell the 4wd vs the 2wd. And even if it was a 2wd, all he would need is a wheel adapter from 5 to 6 lug. This is what I plan to do when I put some matte black SSS 20s on my old school OOBS suburban.

This is harder than adapters but is also better than using adapters.
