Re: Who All Makes 6 LUG Wheels in ...

That's kind of a loaded question which may be easier answered if you have a particular style or "look" your after.
I have T.I.S. (Twenty Inches Strong) 6 lug, 20's on my '67 that were bought for a Tundra(?), they may not make a wheel that fits your style or the "theme" of your truck. I would go buy one of those Low Rider magazines (only because they have a ton of wheels in different styles) to help determine what your after.

I hope this helped a little.......

Re: Who All Makes 6 LUG Wheels in ...

I Guess The Overall goal is More of a Hotrod Look,,Maybe 5 inches lower all the way around with a Slight Rake.On The rear I want The MAXIMUM Tire width possible.So I was wondering who all might Make some Rims for the Back about 12" Wide In either 18"Dia or 20"..I Thought This might Have Been done Before,But The 6 Lug Throws it off I am Sure. I am somewhat dedicated to The 6 Lug as I already have SSB 4 wheel disc Brake Kit for it. Another Thing I am unsure on is if to use a Spring and spindle type Lower Job Or an Air Bag set-up,I Have a 750 hp BBC Sans The N2O.A TurbO 400 With a gear Vendor OD,and Will drive it to The Track etc and when I Put a set of Slicks on it,Id Like it To Hook Up. The Big Picture would be a 10.50 truck with AC.It is a Long Bed in Case anyone wants to Chime in with Hi-Po Rearend Chassis suggestions.Thanks

Here are 17x8 and 17x10. 6 lug Coddington's Smootie ll's I don't think 12 wide would fit and still keep the tire inside the fender. Click on my build thread below if you want more photos.

Remember, If you do the wide whites and red steelies I will be obligated to hate you. i was going to do that and ended up backing out on doing it. I really wanted to run those dang spidercaps though!! Arghhh!
