Hey Robert, thanks for reaching out!
If the 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern and 3.65" pilot hole diameter matches what you have on your '46 GMC pickup then yes, the Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel # AM20514 will fit.
We don't necessarily recommend using trailer wheels for a vehicle, but we also know that people have used them on older vehicles like what you have, so I would say they are safe to use, yes.
Is your pickup truck something you've have for a long time, or did you buy it and you're remodeling it?
