Need you guys opinion on wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**painterljp** · 01-30-2018, 01:07 AM

The chrome wheels have been on truck for a while. Got rallies done and can't figure out which ones look better. Have only mounted one so far. Opinions needed. Thanks in advance.

AASmedic · 01-30-2018, 02:29 AM

I'd go with the Rally wheels. Just my 2 cents

**Stocker** · 01-30-2018, 02:44 AM

Rallys are a timeless classic that goes well with the truck. The chrome wheels are dated and to be honest I never cared much for them. Can't say more cuz I don't want to offend anyone who has 'em.

**truckster** · 01-30-2018, 03:35 AM

I'm also a fan of the rally wheels.

streetstar · 01-30-2018, 06:36 AM

Rally wheels.

Those chrome directionals were the rage in the late 80's but are now looking tired

**mongocanfly** · 01-30-2018, 06:42 AM

x5....rallies

FRCvette · 01-30-2018, 06:58 AM

Rallies vote here too.

saxart · 01-30-2018, 07:24 AM

Another vote for "Rallies".

BTW... What size tires are on those chrome rims?

DjS71 · 01-30-2018, 07:33 AM

Rally over '80s wheels for me.

**special-K** · 01-30-2018, 07:40 AM

Never liked saw blade wheels.

They are Firestone 265/75/15's.

Thanks for all your all your 2 cents. Am going to firestone this morning and get the rest changed out. Didn't know the blade ones were 80's. Will post a better picture when they all get on there. Appreciate all your advice. Thanks.

**painterljp** · 01-30-2018, 05:12 PM

Thank you all for your opinions. Here's what my truck looks like now.

gearheadperkins · 01-30-2018, 05:25 PM

great looking truck, and I personally think you should run what you like the best. But to help answer your question I prefer the Ralleys... but then again I have them on my 72

BTW.. I love the color of your truck.. that is my plan when I repaint mine..

weq92f · 01-30-2018, 05:33 PM

That's looking good now.

harpo231 · 01-30-2018, 05:37 PM

I like em both,,prefer rally's without white letter tho. just mho

CANUCIT · 01-30-2018, 05:42 PM

Rallye

**jocko** · 01-30-2018, 05:43 PM

Pitch all 8 wheels and throw on some steelies!!!

JUST kidding - I like the rallies better than your old ones, great looking truck btw.

ho70 · 01-30-2018, 05:54 PM

saw blades look 80's

Swar · 01-30-2018, 05:56 PM

If you can't figure out which look better, maybe it's time for something else... That's a beautiful stock looking truck. You can't go wrong with stock looking rims and tires. Maybe even stock hub caps.

Perfect choice.

**painterljp** · 01-31-2018, 12:24 AM

Thanks for all the great comments. Really appreciate the feedback. Going to a local car show this weekend. Talk about last minute. Now all that is left is to detail. Thanks again.

**truckster** · 01-31-2018, 01:01 PM

That's a beautiful truck and the rally wheels look at home on it.

I assume from your user name that you're a painter. I love the gloss on your truck. The paint looks like it's a foot deep.
