Military 15x8 wheels on 63 short wide
 
I was wondering if anyone could give me a quick answer on a wheel question.

Looking at possibly going with a set of 15x8 cucc-v wheels on my 63 short wide. I cut a coil in front and TJ springs in the back.

Does anyone know if I will have any interference problems with this set up? Running factory drums.

Thanks.

Mike

They are the same backspacing as the 6 lug rally's. I have seem many C10's run them up front, so they should work.

Count your lucky stars, because getting your hands on a set of those is RARE! I have a pair on the back of my 66. The hardcore C10'ers will notice a 3 nub, 6 lug steel wheel and ask you where in the heck did you get them!

Mount em and show em off. Would love to see them.

What size tire are you going to run? With what you are planning to drop it, 235/75R15 or comparable height would look nice and proportionate.
