Thats my old 64. Those are 15x6 Supremes with 205/75/15 Diamondback radial www's.

Im a big fan of www's on these trucks. If you search my name for pics Ive posted over time, you'll see most of my previous rides had wide whites.

Simple pipe-notch in rear. Bagged all 4 corners

I agree with Mark. The '61 and earlier trucks look great with 3" wide whites or smaller, while the later trucks look great with skinnies...although I think the really wide whites should stay on 40's and 50's cruisers....Just my opinion.

I think it all depends on what direction you go with your truck.They all look good in the right place.The only thing I don`t like is full wheelcovers with blackwalls.That`s bugged me since a kid.:lol:

Hey Jason, I'm sure you've been asked this a hundred times, but what size are those rims, 15x7s or 15x8s? I really love the stance of your truck.

Here are some on my 1962 Thunderbird, but these may be going on my '59 Edsel wagon.

I am going to run pinners on my truck, mounted on a set of Crestline Torque Thrust.
