Stumped on wheels
Looking for a few opinions and if there’s anything I’ve learned about the group here is that you all aren’t afraid to share - which I appreciate.
Right now my truck is riding on 22 inch wheels with rubber band tires. I recently re-did the front suspension and brakes and with that I am now ready to get new wheels and tires for it. I like the old-school look of rally, smoothie, steel wheels. I’m learning that with a six lug set up I’m very limited in my options. I came across the American racing and Raceline wheels (pictured) and while they are not old-school I think each look pretty cool. What have those of you with six lug wheel set ups done? |

Re: Stumped on wheels
since you mentioned steel wheels - if you've done a disk brake conversion to a stock size caliper, you could run K5/10 steelies with PO3 hub caps. If you have a larger non-stock type caliper, then disregard, you'll require larger aftermarket wheels.

Re: Stumped on wheels
on a different note, I ran 6 lug on my 68 for many years. Last year I swapped to 5 lug and the options are much bigger on wheel choices.
good luck Dave
