Re: military rims ?
i dont know if they were original but i looked at a us army 71 c10 and it was suposedly unmodified and it had wide rims but i never measured
it may be an opption, it would be neat to find out it that was true

Re: military rims ?
I always remember the army blazers having wide steel wheels, but never thought they were that wide.
Regardless of what they are, if they have the flat green paint, do not sand the paint off, the CARC paint is very bad stuff if you inhale the dust. |
