Default Are all H2 Hummer wheels the same lug pattern?

I found four stock Hummer H2 wheels for a steal. Being new to Hummer ownership, I need to know from those that do. I have an '05 Hummer H2 SUT. Do all stock Hummer H2 wheels have the same bolt pattern? I need to know ASAP.
Any advice will be much appreciated.

Yes - all are the same bolt pattern regardless of year. It is also the same 8 lug bolt pattern used on GM HD trucks.

Up until 2011 when GM HD trucks went to a metric bolt pattern.

Good point. On our H2's the pattern specifically is 8x165.1, also commonly referred to as 8.165, and 8x6.5. I forget what the offset is but its easy to find online.

Thanks a bunch guys. I found the wheels (including centers) for a steal of a price. When I finally wear out my 22s, I want to switch back to the original wheels to restore my Hummer to completely stock.

Just for curiosity. Why would you want a stock wheels when there are much better choices out there .
Not only visual but my aftermarket wheels same size as the oem are lighter and stronger than the oem

Only thing I can add is that at least going to a smaller wheel size, it should ride a lot better since you will probably have a lot more sidewall. The stock wheels I want are harder to find - there was a limited production of true forged wheel made by Alcoa specifically for the H2 that dealerships offered.

Aside from those, I have stock one back on mine since it came with the black Rockstar wheels that you see on about 1 in 3 trucks and I just did not dig it. I'm always keeping an eye out for good quality aftermarket 8 lug wheels but 99% are 20" or larger and I want 18's (I actually use it off road some and prefer the better ride provided with more sidewall). Looking on craigslist you would just about think everyone with a truck bought 22 to 24 inch wheels, soon realized it rides like crap with rubber band tires and now stuck with ginormous wheels. lol

Dont get me wrong, with a proper lift kit 22" wheels will ride great because you have the room to put extraordinarily expensive 40" tires on them. My goal is to lift a couple of inches, get some nice 17" or 18" wheels with an offset that puts them out enough to run 37" tires.

I want to restore it to original. I also hate the huge, rough riding 22s it has on it now that the previous owner installed. Kind of a hypocritical viewpoint considering I am having new cool air intake, headers, and performance cat-back (less the cat converter) exhaust installed to improve performance, sound, and gas mileage.

I agree about the wheel size . Anything over 18 is too big for my taste plus ride will suffer , I understand some people like the big chrome wheels since this is a highly customizable trucks and everyone taste is different

however my point about the OEM wheels is the quality. I have mine for over 2 years , ride quality was never as good as after I replaced for Fuel wheels (17") , there ws always some kind of vibrations. Even with new balanced tires .
and the rims weren't bend or bad in anyway . Imo
sometime OEM is not the best
