Coddington 17's - How do they look? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Is anyone running Coddington Timeless wheels (or similar) on their truck?

I'm looking at buying a set of these five spoke wheels in 17.

I'd love to see some pictures.

Thanks,

aitch

Thanks for the Intro wheel link.
The Coddington's I'm looking at are a take off wheel tire package.
265/60 17 x 8's in front and 285/60 17 x 9 1/2 in back.

First will they fit and second how will they look. I've not decided about the Timeless style but I've not seen it on one of our trucks.

I emailed Coddington Wheels and asked what BS is on these wheels.
They offered to sell me a custom set for $1200 plus. Got no information.

Those are the wheels I originally wanted for my truck too. I've seen a truck like ours with them and it looked great.

I ended up getting American Racing TT2 (17x8 all around) cause I got a pretty good deal on them. I'm running 275/50/17s for tires.

Back spacing is 5" on the front and 5 3/4 in back. Tires are 265/60 17 x 8 in front and 275/60 17 x 9 1/2 in back.

what IS the preferred backspacing? I had some info stating that it needed to be 4 1/2" front and 5" back.. so is there a thread in FAQ or something that covers this issue? I need to order some of the Torq thrust D's for my 68
