AD truck on 15" wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

54 LS-3100 · 09-13-2015, 10:12 PM

Hey all,

I am looking into wheel size for my 1954 3100 on a s10 frame. The truck will sit roughly 7" (or higher) off the ground. I really like the Pacer 541's, but from the looks of it, they only come in 15". I am going for an old school look and think the 541's will look killer. Definitely dig the Halibrand look.

I currently have a pair of 17" American Racing torque thrusts. I like the look, but it not really the look I am going for. Also, not sure if I want to go 17" because I like the smaller look.

Can I get some pics of lower AD trucks on 15"s.

I also attached a pic of the American Racing and Pacer wheels.

Thanks,

My boards were not on at the time so it looks a bit higher.

If you like the halibrand look, US mag has some. In a 17x9 too!

And here's a toy for you to play with to see what different wheels look like on your truck.

Thanks for the replies. I will check some of those other options you all suggested.

Wolffcub, thanks for the picture. I like the look of your truck! Can't wait until mine gets to that point. The 15" wheels look great on your ride!
