Chrome rally wheels with chrome caps
 
I am in the planning stages of our "Project S- Red Sled" Blazer project, and I have been toying with the idea of going with chrome rally wheels. I know I saw this photo on the board, and the rally wheels and white walls have been in my head ever since. I would have never thought white walls would work on a 67-72, but ... it's SO sick. I saved it to my computer and I can't remember where I saw it.

With the paint combo we've come up with, and the red/white retro "Red Sled" theme. This would be SWEET!

I want some more info on this wheel and tire combo. Anybody know who's it is?

Ya know... the toughest part about dreamin' up a truck and building it is locking down the options! There are so many! Colors, rims, interior options, engine size...

Thanks to babyblueoval for letting me hack up his rendering. This is what I've been thinking...

It doesn't look as good as his rendering, but I dont have photoshop. :)
Having this to play with gave me the bright idea to play with the color.

Although Orange Sled doesn't have the same nice ring to it....

Thanks! I was wondering if people would think red was "overplayed". I don't really want to go 1972's factory red. I had a 72 Monte Carlo back in 2007 which was Dodge Viper Red. That's what I am thinking would stand out the most. The picture doesn't do it justice. It is BRIGHT red.
