Working on tire and wheel combo - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Trying to decide which wheels and bolt pattern I want to run on my panel. Every time I blink I change my mind

I think this wheel would look good with an early Chevy cap that has a small bow tie on it. (52 I think).

Or stock steel wheel, which is also15x8 4 inch bs painted black with the small Chevy chrome cap.

I also have the smoothie style wheels in 5 lug painted black if I switch to 5 lug.

Or have a stock 5 lug (outer nubs for the cap) chromed and run no cap...I love that sixties look.

The two things I will NOT run is baby moons or trim rings.

Oops, forgot one. Stock hubcap, but on a black wheel not a chrome one like this...Maybe get rid of the fake lug nuts and put some small chrome cones over em?

I too love that look and am considering it for a project I got going ... maybe even with wide whites ... dunno on the tires yet.

I've got painted with the police caps (have a bowtie on them) w/trim rings. Looks sharp! Can't get a pic posted but you can see it at Monroe next month.
