Post pics of your 20" rims!!!
I'm buying new rims and tires for my 71 SWB this weekend and I'm leaning towards the Ridler 645 Black rims. I also grew up around the drag strip so the look of a drag truck I still love. I just want to see what you guys are rolling on. Thanks

Re: Post pics of your 20" rims!!!
I got 20's on the back of my El Camino (18's front). I know it's not a truck per say, but I think they look pretty sharp. They are a "black chrome". I don't know if you can tell but they are not as blingy as traditional chrome wheels.
Don't know if this helps any.

Re: Post pics of your 20" rims!!!
Thanks. I wanted something that was not quite so in your face that it took your attention away from the car. First pic I think is actually the front 18".

Re: Post pics of your 20" rims!!!
First is Boss 338's, they looked good but way to much work keeping them clean. I went to the Ridler 645's in gray with the chrome lip and I like them much better. I clean them like twice in an entire season.

I do like the Iroc's, the wire is a hard sell though.

Re: Post pics of your 20" rims!!!
Oh, I got it, that makes more sense. These wheels were on the truck when I bought it. I like the looks, but I've always been partial to the Torque Thrusts myself.
