Re: How would these look on 1971 GMC Pick up?

Just my opinion, but I don't think they would look good. But then, I'm one of those who prefers wagon wheels or 5 spoke cragar mags I have a 71 with black wagon wheel rims, and I like the looks of it on there. Spent 100 bucks for an old set of rims, sanded them down and repainted. Tires were another 260 or so, so about 360 (well, ok a little bit for paint, maybe 380).

Bottom line though, if you like those rims and they will fit, get them! It is your truck to do with as you want to

I doubt they'll even fit right. And if they do, the back spacing alone will make them look funny.
As for as the wheel style, it's your truck, build it for you.
