Wheel ideas - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am looking for some ideas on wheels for my 56 3/4 ton. The problem is I wanted to put some cool old hubcaps on it but everything is 15''. I have miss matched 15'' split rims on the front and 16.5 rims on the back now. I do have a set of stock 16'' rims off my old f250 I could paint up but I just wanted to see what you guys had done with some stock wheels or aftermarket. If you could show me some pics that would be great. Just looking for some ideas.

I'd get some 15" wagon wheels myself (since you have 15's on the front already and you know they fit) and just get some caps you like... didn't I give you some when I moved a few years ago? I remember some Chevy caps for some reason, the ones with the bowties around them...

No the caps your thinking of I found in a shed and I only had 2 and one was a moon style chevy cap.

Probably

I'm gonna go out to that one house this next week, I'll see if I can get you a set of oldie caps then...if someone is around that is!

Oh yeah, get your butt in gear, the car show in Palouse is on June 4th, it gets better every year, we're going to try and have Kelsey's p'up there.
