71 K10 Wheel help
Looking for suggestions on aftermarket wheels for a 71 K10 project.
I've been looking, haven't found much I like as I prefer more of a classic look. I'm looking for black wheels and want to see what you have for ideas. Thanks

Re: 71 K10 Wheel help
Black steelies look very good on Ks. White steelies too, but I'm assuming you've ruled out steelies as they are the default? Squarebody rally wheels look great on 67-72 K10s. You can paint them black. Beyond that, I'm not much help! Ha. Good luck, it's a K10, it's gonna have a hard time not lookin good.

Re: 71 K10 Wheel help
Just the D-hole wheels look good. Classic would be steelies or paint wagon wheels black, because that's what they had, then a bit later rallyes. I think you can still get round hole steel wheels. Back in the day a set like that could have rolled out of a custom wheel builder's shop

My boss just put these on his 75 k10, new but classy looking.

Re: 71 K10 Wheel help
