Re: OJ has some new shoes for the summer

It's worth a shot with the dog dishes and white letters on there. I think it would look great, but I like the slots better than just about any other wheel, so I am biased. I have a set of 7's and a set of 8.5's (slots), but I was really wanting to get some rubber on teh gound all around. I hope the 8.5's will work with 6" of drop. I found a couple of old ones in the tire pile at work, so it will be free to find out.

Re: OJ has some new shoes for the summer

I still think the 69 Camaro/Chevelle/Nova dog dish caps even with the RWL BFGs would look awesome.

Oh yeah... haha, definitely be getting some 10's for the rear. I just wanted to see a few more pics of that exact tire/wheel combo before I ordered everything. Thanks again for the pics, that's exactly what i needed to see!

Re: OJ has some new shoes for the summer

It looked amazing with the slots, but it looks perfect with the steelies! Gives it that I'm not afraid to kick your ass, and get a little bruised up in the process look.

Re: OJ has some new shoes for the summer

Liked the old wheel set-up better personally, but those look nice also - either way it's a KILLER truck!!!

Re: OJ has some new shoes for the summer

My truck is the same orange is your but only has a white top. I am completing my frame off on it now with a lsx swap and bought a set 20" bonspeeds for it but now I'm thinking of just running the stock wheels. When I paint it I will do white in the center like yours. This truck made me finalize my decision.

Thanks Del! You mean the fat white steels or the skinny stock white walls?
