96 Impala SS wheels on 73-87 trucks
Im going page by page on one of the picture threads and i cant find any (except for a fuzzy white one from 20 ft away).
if you have these on your truck or have pictures could you post them. ive seen some in person years ago after i sold my 1st 87, and now that i have a 2nd 87, i think i want those wheels. 17" fit pretty good with a 60 series tires, and i like 5 spoke designs.. so we have a candidate. poste up a tite clint |

Yeah, it's a mutt. Chris has been working on it as long as I have known him. Check out his build thread at www.73-87chevytrucks.com

Re: 96 Impala SS wheels on 73-87 trucks
I had a set on mine for a while, then a few other guys around here bought them after seeing them on my truck. So I sold mine and put the ralleye's back on mine.

Re: 96 Impala SS wheels on 73-87 trucks
For some reason I like those better without the center caps on these trucks.

Re: 96 Impala SS wheels on 73-87 trucks
It's not hard to charge the Impala logo out for something else if you like the raised style cap. OR, there is a smooth faced cap with a Chevy bowtie logo on it that fits this wheel.
Hopefully these images (lifted from impalasuperstore.com) come thru... Stock cap with leaping impala ![]() Stock cap modified with bowtie logo ![]() Smooth cap with bowtie logo ![]()

Re: 96 Impala SS wheels on 73-87 trucks
I think the smooth cap is off of a 98-up (or so) S-10 with the ZQ8 suspension.
