Other than the fronts being a bit wider it looks great. Are the off sets the same for all 4 wheels You maybe able to swap them around and get the fronts back under the fender. Either way looks good. That front shot looks great.

Re: new wheels what yall think
Truck looks good with the new shoes... As for the rear being sucked it id guess different offsets on the wheels or the narrow early rear end..

Re: new wheels what yall think
they look good but your gonna roostertail road grime all over your doors without mud flaps.
i bet it handles a lil' better with fatties all around. i had a 77 swb with pretty much the same look with ss cragers it liked too follow the grooves in the road. with no ps those wheels made it a BEAR to crank the wheel, as a mater of fact it had no power anything with 3ott it was just overall a bear too drive but i loved it. after a road trip i was wore out ![]()

Re: new wheels what yall think
I bet they were hell getting them on the rims. They are a little wide for tires that small. I was wondering why the side walls looked pooched out towards the lip of the rim. Careful when parking near a curb....
