Which wheels? (budget edition)
I have some stock steelies painted white with the chevy caps that came on my 86 c20 when I bought it. Unfortunately the tires, while at almost 100% tread, are dry rotted incredibly bad all over. I found a guy selling some wheels off a 96 c2500 with decent tires and since he was moving he let me have them for $50. I put one on and sprayed it black just to see what it would look like.
When I eventually have more money for tires I will have to choose between the stock/white or black wheels. I like the white and my wife likes the black ones. What do you guys think? |

Re: Which wheels? (budget edition)
hard as plastic, dry rotted tires are pretty useless. i wouldnt drive them in the rain. my buddy had brand new tires from 1994 on his truck. they were really hard and dry rotting. couldnt get traction to save your life lol

Front one for sure. Back one gets lost in the wheel well.....
Front is classic.

Either white with caps, or argent with caps. Black looks bad.
