Currently have 'tweaked' Old-school sizing w/OE style caps. I'd like to do more updated/current sizing & 'period-correct' looking aftermarket wheels. But, off the shelf BS options on affordable wheels aren't what I feel would work best & I don't want to spend =/>1K a wheel to achieve my desired look.

You can actually buy metal plates to mount between the wheel and the drum/disc. They'll block brake dust too.

Nice perspective.

I also kinda like the taillights without the bezels.

I just went through every post in this thread. Some really nice looking trucks and wheel options are insane.https://i.imgur.com/GeUqFG9.gif Thought the thread could use a bump. Surely some new trucks or wheel changes have happened.

My brother and I decided the only wheels we remembered ever seeing on our dads truck growing up was these. So when we inherited it it was the obvious choice for us. The memories we have seeing them turning on the street were good ones knowing dad was home.

Currently its the US MAGS INDY 15x7 up front and 15x9s out back. I just ordered the 15x5s and have my eyes open for a reasonable set of 15x12s for the rear.

I have always liked those but they have such odd backspacing that I am worried they will not fit properly on my truck

This is one thing I am correcting on my rear. Im narrowing a 9” to go in mine so as soon as I get my rear wheels I can start calculating to get the correct placement. Im not a fan of how they set in on the rear currently.

18x7.5" Jeep Grand Cherokee steelies, something like 6" back spacing. No spacers.

NOTE: this is on 73-87 crossmember, modified a-arms, 88-98 spindles, and non-narrowed Ford 9" with 5x5 axles. With this setup, the actual "track width" is the same as what was factory.
