Full circle - PO1 full wheel covers on factory steel wheels
I've had this truck for 25 years next summer. In that time it's only had the rally wheels I bought it with and a set of 15x8 torque thrusts that I mounted in 1998. I have always wanted to find a good set of PO1 full wheel covers and mount them on factory 15x7 steel wheels, as it was optioned from the factory. I finally got it done. Ironically the wheel covers cost more and were much harder to find than the set of wheels or set of tires LOL.

Re: Full circle - PO1 full wheel covers on factory steel wheels
Just like the title says
Full circle Back in the day hardly any trucks were kept with there stock tires And much of the time were lowered when new tire/wheels We’re install These days it’s not to often you see a stock Paint scheme with stock wheels And lowered Very nice indeed |

Re: Full circle - PO1 full wheel covers on factory steel wheels
That is a great look
Wheels were one of the first item’s that we’re changed along with radios with speakers in the doors and steering wheels I really like the stock stance also Looks like a 1972 advertisement ![]()

Re: Full circle - PO1 full wheel covers on factory steel wheels
You can't go wrong with original on these trucks. People may fall in love with these trucks through the customs they see these days, but those only look so good because of the styling of the truck they started out with. You change color, wheels, or any other detail and a person could ask "Why did you do that?" or whatever. And you could even look at a later date and question whether you still like it, if it was the right way to go, or is all you did too much or would other wheels look better, etc. You leave it stock and if someone asks "Why did you do that color?", those wheels, or anything else and your answer is simple "That's how it came" or "That's original".
Truck looks great!

Re: Full circle - PO1 full wheel covers on factory steel wheels
You know it's funny, having bought this truck when I was 14...I have been through most of the common changes and all the way back again. Big stereo, interior, whiz-bang chrome engine bay with headers. All of it has been returned to an original look. Thank the Lord my good ole' Dad talked me out of painting it white, shaving the trim and such all those years ago.

Re: Full circle - PO1 full wheel covers on factory steel wheels
Looks good! Do you need a special wheel for these to clip on or can then be mounted on rally wheels?

Re: Full circle - PO1 full wheel covers on factory steel wheels
I have my P01's mounted on 15 x 7 rally wheels and they hold great.
