Re: Help with rims

I would go with 20's front and 22's rear just because I love the staggered look...



My wife bought me the c5's in black,,18x8 front and 20x10 rears..I should have them in a week or so.

Grey 20's all around if you are going to drive it a lot, 20's up front with 22's out back if your not going to drive it all that much. 22" tires are expensive if you can't rotate the tires to make them last.

Re: Help with rims

Hey big red,

post a good side photo of your truck plus the pictures of the rims you are interested in over on this thread http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/f...splay.php?f=33 and ask someone to photoshop each set of rims on your truck....it'll give you a better idea of what they look like on your truck....

Re: Help with rims

Definitely the grey spoke wheels, and I would run 20's all the way around.
