Hello all & What Wheels Will Fit 69?
Hello all. I am new to the board. Sure is a lot of info here. Very nice.
I just bought my first chevy truck. I have wanted one for years but never found the right one, that I could afford, anyway. I just bought a 69 1/2 ton longbed. Needs work but has very good bones. My first priority is to get some wheels on it as it still has the stock wheels and hubcaps. I have not brought it home yet so I dont know what size wheels will fit. It has the stock 6 lug drums with leaf springs in the back. I would like to go with 15X8 or 10. If anyone knows offhand if these would be ok please let me know. I am also curious about the leaf springs. I thought the 69 1/2 tons had coils. Not all of them? Any info would be appreciated. I must say this board is very inspiring. There are alot of nice trucks out there. Thanks for your time, Chad |

Welcome aboard!
15x10's will work just fine, then again it all depends on your particular application and what future plans you may have for it. I'm also guessing it's not a 4x4????
