Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

So we stuck the 18's and 20's on over the weekend... here's a few pic's (sorry for the poor quality). I do know that I need to bring the front down to match the ass end. The 17's are back on it for now untill I figured out/decide what to do in order to get it lower. The 1st pic is with 17's... 2nd and 3rd are with 18's/20's. Whatcha think?

NICE! What about going white-letters-out...:lol:

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

Nice just needs a little rake to it.

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

Call me crazy, but I like the old setup better. Both look nice however, I just prefer the old set.

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

both look good
you plan on selling a set?

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

needs 20's all the way around.

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

I like the new set. could be just a lil bit lower in the front

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

I agree with big block, I like the look of the 17's better. I am not a big wheels man. They do look good......

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

I'm wondering if you noticed any difference in ride quality, I know with the taller rims comes the lower profile tires, was it any/much worse?

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

I would agree with 20" all around

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

20 all the way imo

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

I'm not a big wheel fan. 17's are pushing it for me, but I think both the 17's and 18's-20's look good.

I'd stick with 17' I think, but I have to admit with the thicker sidewall the 18's and 20's aint too bad at all.

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

I like it alot just bring the front down a little and it will be perfect. I was wondering what these trucks would look like with 18s and 20s.the staggered look is awsome.

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

Looks great either way!!!!!
What size tires are those in the rear?? (new 20's)

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

In the pictures you posted I like the 17's better. If you went 3" lower all the way around the 18-20's would look killer.

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

:agree: I think bring front and rear down a little more. Looks awesome!

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

Looks great!

Honestly though, my personal preference goes against the staggered wheel look. I think the 73-87 trucks are too symmetrical and balanced in their 3 box design to sport a stagger. I would go with the same rim size all around, but if the stagger look is your thing, that's an awesome truck.

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

You already know my opinion. Go with 20's and be done with it.

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

well put:b69:

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

Not too bad, either way.

The larger rubber on the 18-20s can be a bit overpowering, but the 18s in front look good.

I shrunk the front tire about 5% and lowered it a bit more. Then, lowered the front a bit more to give it some rake. Oh, the air dam had to go, otherwise it wouldn't last...

Looks like it may be bag time. :cool:

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

what drop and tire size do you have in the first pic(17's) thats how low i want my front end. i have a 4.5" drop with 255/50/17's and i have atleast 1" of fender gap i want to get rid of

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

looks great with the 18/ 20 combo!!!!!

Re: Test fitted wheels... opinions wanted :)
 

I was unable to drive it around... we only did one side and then stuck my original 17's back on. I'm guessing it will change a bit... there's still a good amount of sidewall on the new set up.

Thanks,
Anthony
