Finally- New shoes...
Well- New to me anyway... 18" Boss 304. Not sure if I like the look. Maybe a lil to modern for the look I'm trying to achieve. Non the less- they will do for a while. Had to do the standard hub grind to get the front caps on. Front wheel well is 28.5" from center to ground and rear well is 28" from center to ground. I think I need to back a block out of the rear to acheive a little wedge to the look. So, what do y'all think?

Re: Finally- New shoes...
I like, its not retro like aluminim slots but i think it looks a lot nicer than some of the others i have seen. I'm not a rubber band fan and i think they fit the fenderwells nicely with just enough meat on the rim.

Re: Finally- New shoes...
I'd take the front down a bit, if it were mine.

Re: Finally- New shoes...
Those are the same wheels that's on my truck.... Did you modify the hub on the rotor to get the center cap on?

Re: Finally- New shoes...
If I would have seen those wheels in a picture I would have passed right by them. But now that I see them on your truck I kinda dig'em.
