15 x 10 Rally Wheel question

[geoman]

Does anyone run these rally wheels? I am not sure which to run on the back of my 67. I want to put a 275/60/15 tire or maybe a little larger but do not want it sticking out. I did a search and looked at endless pics but could not find one to see if there combo was sticking out or tucked up nicely. My truck is stock height.

Thanks!
Mike

I had those on my 70 shortstep, same rims same size you are talking about, I believe I have the 4 1/2" inch backspacing, they didnt tuck but mine is lowered and the lip of the fender hit the outer edge of the tire. If you have a fleet I think they would they wouldnt rub. Stock height they wouldnt be a problem with fleet or step bed.
Just looked again at your post and I am running a 72 rearend and it is wider than a 67-70 rear also, so that would give you another inch atleast of clearance.

Im running 15X10 slots with 275/60/15's on the rear of my truck. Not sure what the back space is, but they dont rub anywhere & its dropped 6"...

ive got some 275/50/15 front and back and they dont come cose to rubing and if you ask me they look skinny in the rear Im not sure how wide you can go with stock fenders but with some aftermarket fends you can get some huge tires in here without any suspension work.

I have 15 x 10 (4.5 backspacing) Corvette Rallyes w/ 275/60/15's on my 69 step. 5" drop springs in the back, 3" drop up front. have about 1.75" of inside clearance in the back. doesn't come anywhere near rubbing front or back. the tires are 10.2" wide, so it fills up the well.

I can post a pick if you want, have to get the front end aligned tomorrow....

Please do.

I have a fleetside...I think I am going to go witht he 4.5" backspacing.

I, too, am running 10" wide 15" rallye wheels on my '67, but it's not a pickup....it's a Corvette.

I am enjoying this thread, however, because it's helping me to plan my upcoming '67 truck project.

Please post more truck photos with these wheels.

[geoman]

thanks for the picture! Definetly what I am looking for.

Nice truck btw and nice vet 67heaven

[tcb-1]

not to hijack or plug someone related to me...........
but I had an excellent experience with David's Rally Wheels getting my rims. He had what I wanted in stock, he worked with me on the lug covers, shipped the same day, and was honest. The rims I have were made by Wheel Vintiques.

That is just what I want to use on my '69 step. I was doing some measuring and had doubts that they would fit but they look great on yours. It's nice to know that there is pleanty of clearance.

Hi Bob,

It looks like you found out where I hang out. We could cut the back out of that plastic truck and make it a little more usable. I've been keeping my eyes open for a '67 step. This is the time of year when people seem to want to unload things before they have to store them.

Tom,
By the way, I'm running stock height shocks in the stock locations with no problem. dampens the dips and holes out fine!

Well, howdy Tom, ol' friend. You can run, but you can't hide. Let me know when you find my '67 shorty-step.

Here is the best pics I could find of my project with the wheels on it. They are not rally's but they are 15x10 in the rears and not sure on the backspacing,but they are really close to being perfect fitment for me.

Not to hijack, but what are you using for a drop on your truck?...

[Bob 68327]

UMMM!!! It's all homemade it has a leaf spring rear that is flipped and relocated to center the wheels in the wheel wells . The front is cut coils and lowered spring bucket in the lower controll arms . All built in my garage no parts came out of a box on this one!!!!! It even drives quite well!!!!!

Thank you. Mine is the same in the rear but Id like to get my front down a little bit more & keep the drums. Got a pic under the front by chance?

[Bob 68327]

Corn , i don't currently have any front pics . It's not pretty kinda greasy and grimey. All you need to do is cut your lower controll arm buckets out lower them approx. 2'' and weld them back in just make sure you keep them at the same angle . Hope this helps !!! Oh and glad you like the way I did my truck . I think your truck looks *****in' also!!!!!
