Yup! That looks tough! I can see mine wearing those. I saw an '87 with a set and it got me thinking! Thanks

How did you get those to fit the rear? Having a panel myself, there is not a lot of room back there. I couldn't get a set of 15x8.5 with 3" BS to fit without being really close to the fender lip.

I like those caps!!!!!

Freshly installed 17x8 Vision Legend 6 with 275/60 back and 255/60 front. I'm gonna add a .25 or .50" spacer in the rear as it is real tight to the inside.

What offset did you get.

Snowbound · 06-15-2013, 02:26 PM

Zero offset which was 4.5" backspace. A smaller tire would have helped, but I wanted the biggest tire possible.

Powdercoated stock steel wheels, bullet lug nuts and 8.15-15 5/8 white wall Firestone Deluxe Champions. I have a set of old GMC caps that I plan to clean up and potentially use.

hey Big Carter,

Whats your 0ffset on those wheels ? is your suspension OE or porterbuilt etc.. thanks

Snowbound · 06-17-2013, 04:41 PM

I want to give an update as to not mislead anyone by my previous post.

I double checked my wheels and it turns out they shipped me the 19mm offset wheels instead of zero like I had ordered. The proper offset will put them right where they need to be with no spacers involved.

Now to straighten this mess out.....My bad for not checking earlier. I wondered why they were so tight to the inside, as I measured very carefully before ordering.

63burban · 06-18-2013, 09:43 AM

70s 15x8 rally wheels, machinery gray with 265/70x15 and 90s center caps. Did these up in 1996, tires have been replaced since then BFG

markeb01 · 06-18-2013, 10:07 AM

I love the way your truck looks. It's just perfect.

Those Firestones have such a classic look. I went through a lot of them back in the mid 60's. My dad had a friend that owned a late model wrecking yard, so I routinely bought the brand new spare tires out of wrecked Buicks and other late model GM cars. I paid $5 each for them back in those days.
