My 71 GMC needs some new shoes... show me what you have, and if you were able to get it done on the cheap, tell me! I am looking for low maintenance, and high looks!! (But no spinner stuff! )

Thanks!

If you really don't care too much, do what I'm doing. I got 4 Pontiac Rally II wheels for free and am going to paint them gunmetal. I got 2 almost new Goodyear Eagle GT4 and all I need is two back tire. Probably Dunlop for the cheap price. All total $120 for tires, $23 in spraypaint and the y look better than mismatch steel wheels and dryrotted re-treads.

You can buy American Racing Equipment wheels from board member putter,
for a real good price. He gave me a good quote on some torque thrust 5 spokes for my corvette.

Cheap to some is not cheap to others.
You can always go the junkyard route for rally or other factory gm wheels.

Newer (like 90 or so) chrome steel gmc ralley wheels look OK, and are cheap to buy. Only have a center cap so you don't have to worry about trim rings like on the older ones.
