New wheels for the 67(Ridler 695)
 
3 Attachment(s)
My wheels came in today. I ended up going the cheap route and getting some cast wheels. These are Ridler 695 in grey(very similar to Boss 338). Sizes are 20x10 with 5.5" bs and 20x8.5 with 4.75" bs. Tires are Nitto invo 245/40-20 and 295/35-20. Front suspension has CPP 13" brakes on their modular spindle. Rear axle in factory narrow 67 unit w/ 5-lug axle conversion and CPP 12" lincoln caliper kit.

These things bolted right up, center bore is plenty big and deep. Backspace looks like its gonna work but only driving will tell for sure. Looks like the front might rub a bit on a really low truck while turning sharp but looks like Im gonna have .5" clearance between the inside of the rear tires and the rear fender well.

Heres some pics:

Looks great.
I wanted to get the boss 338 for my car but the wheel&tire shop says they dont come staggered (even though i saw a truck in truckin with 20x8.5 and 20x10) so i should look into these.
How much you spend?

No offense to anyone intended, but I'd go to a different wheel & tire shop.

As for the oldspowered67C10 truck? Very, very nice. Wheels, body, tires, stance. All of it. Bravo!

Yeah my dad has known the owner for 20 years and he always hooks us up and gives us a good deal. (saved us $400 on a set of intro vistas) Which is why i wouldnt go anywhere else. I just dont know why they said they cant get the 338s staggered?

If they said they "wouldn't", they were right.
If they said they "couldn't", they were wrong.

My guys (Wheel King in Fresno, CA), had (2) 20 x 10; (2) 20 x 8.5 338's the next morning from the distributor.

I have a couple pictures from last fall with the old wheels and tires. No build thread I bought the truck last summer as you see it.
