Re: We all love pictures 72 to 71 Wheel swap!
petey... I'm trying to remember are those trucks bagged or staticly dropped?
And, I like the wheel change on the '71. The only question... is he going to upgrade the '72 wheels now?

Re: We all love pictures 72 to 71 Wheel swap!
Subscribing to find out the same thing. If those are Foose Nitrous 20s, I'm in for some of those.

Re: We all love pictures 72 to 71 Wheel swap!

gintaras. No you aren't the oddball. I am not a big fan of the matchbox car look. To each his own.

Re: We all love pictures 72 to 71 Wheel swap!
Thanks for the information petey-pablo. I think the ralleyes will really be fitting for that truck.
Did he run into any issues with the 5/6 on the blue truck and running 22's? I know it's only a .5" difference but still... sometimes that's all it takes. ![]()

Re: We all love pictures 72 to 71 Wheel swap!
Yup the front wheel wells were removed they rubbed too much but on the Red & White truck they fit fine I drove it at Street & highway speeds and I didn't notice any Rubbing at all even when turning.
