Need you guys opinion on wheels

The chrome wheels have been on truck for a while. Got rallies done and can't figure out which ones look better. Have only mounted one so far. Opinions needed. Thanks in advance.

Re: Need you guys opinion on wheels

Rallys are a timeless classic that goes well with the truck. The chrome wheels are dated and to be honest I never cared much for them. Can't say more cuz I don't want to offend anyone who has 'em.

Rally wheels.

Those chrome directionals were the rage in the late 80's but are now looking tired

They are Firestone 265/75/15's.

Thanks for all your all your 2 cents. Am going to firestone this morning and get the rest changed out. Didn't know the blade ones were 80's. Will post a better picture when they all get on there. Appreciate all your advice. Thanks.

I vote for Rally Wheels! I was going to paint my rallies silver but I put the caps and rings on the already black wheels and I kinda like it.

Re: Need you guys opinion on wheels

great looking truck, and I personally think you should run what you like the best. But to help answer your question I prefer the Ralleys... but then again I have them on my 72

BTW.. I love the color of your truck.. that is my plan when I repaint mine..

If you can't figure out which look better, maybe it's time for something else... That's a beautiful stock looking truck. You can't go wrong with stock looking rims and tires. Maybe even stock hub caps.
