The chrome wheels have been on truck for a while. Got rallies done and can't figure out which ones look better. Have only mounted one so far. Opinions needed. Thanks in advance.

I'd go with the Rally wheels. Just my 2 cents

Rallys are a timeless classic that goes well with the truck. The chrome wheels are dated and to be honest I never cared much for them. Can't say more cuz I don't want to offend anyone who has 'em.

I'm also a fan of the rally wheels.

Rally wheels.

Those chrome directionals were the rage in the late 80's but are now looking tired

Another vote for "Rallies".

They are Firestone 265/75/15's.

Thanks for all your all your 2 cents. Am going to firestone this morning and get the rest changed out. Didn't know the blade ones were 80's. Will post a better picture when they all get on there. Appreciate all your advice. Thanks.

Thank you all for your opinions. Here's what my truck looks like now.

Re: Need you guys opinion on wheels
 
great looking truck, and I personally think you should run what you like the best. But to help answer your question I prefer the Ralleys... but then again I have them on my 72 :)

BTW.. I love the color of your truck.. that is my plan when I repaint mine..

saw blades look 80's

If you can't figure out which look better, maybe it's time for something else... That's a beautiful stock looking truck. You can't go wrong with stock looking rims and tires. Maybe even stock hub caps.

Thanks for all the great comments. Really appreciate the feedback. Going to a local car show this weekend. Talk about last minute. Now all that is left is to detail. Thanks again.

That's a beautiful truck and the rally wheels look at home on it.

I assume from your user name that you're a painter. I love the gloss on your truck. The paint looks like it's a foot deep.

painterljp 01-31-2018 08:53 PM

Re: Need you guys opinion on wheels
 
The paint is single stage urethane. No clear just wash and wax and done. We painted it it's original color. Believe it is the light green 503 if I remember right about 4 yrs. Ago.

I vote for Rally Wheels! I was going to paint my rallies silver but I put the caps and rings on the already black wheels and I kinda like it.

another vote for the rallys. I never cared for the other wheels even when they were popular.

Those chrome wheels belong on a trailer. Rallys all the way!
