I have never seen a replica gibbs wheels(doesn't mean that it wasn't or isn't being made) but I have seen the wheels in a 22. Sorry about my earlier post I misread the opening post.

I’ve seen a set before as well on a Suburban. I wouldn’t really say they were replicas as much as they were just another wheel from the manufacturer that made the wheels for the Gibb’s trucks and SUV’s. The problem is I don’t recall who manufactured the wheels to begin with.

I don't remember who manufactured the wheels but I want to say it starts with a L, maybe it will come back to me later. I hate my memory, or lack there of.

Correct, I think they made like 3 Joe Gibbs Hummers or something.

I wish I could remember the company that made the wheels but it isn't coming to mind. I'll have to do some more research since there isn't much information about these trucks.

All the research I did was back when I had one.

yeah the hummer has 8 lug hubs, not to mention the size of the bolt pattern would be larger than the 20" wheels center cap diameter... so i cant see it being that. gibbs prob wouldve just kept with the 20" theme on the h2 if they did make one anyways... i heard they were considering doing the h2 back in the day (family chevy dealer), but when it came time to opt to order some- it wasnt on the order sheets or in any brochures
