Pics of squares running slotted aluminums

Anybody have a pic of your square running the old slotted aluminum wheels? Thinking about running some 8.5's on the 78, need some inspiration. I am kind of partial to these wheels. Here is a pic of my Wagoneer with them. Thanks

Re: Pics of squares running slotted aluminums

That Jeep looks tough. I really like it.

I would post pics of my '79 with them, but I am still looking for a nice pair of 15x7's for the front. I have a set of 15x8.5's, but they are too wide for the front of my truck. I looked for a good picture of my '73, but all I could find here at work is an in process pic.

I haven't been on here in a while. Here is mine. It's a 2WD 3/4T 8 LUGS! I think they make this truck stand out

What are your plans for paint when this is done? I'm a bit biased but IMO, i think it would look amazing in it's original paint theme.

Re: Pics of squares running slotted aluminums

Thanks guys for the comments! The rims are 16.5 x 8.25. I got them off Ebay. I'm going back with the same Black/grey paint scheme when it gets paint......
