New rims and tires/pics of Dad+son 70's side by side
Check it Out guys i got my new rims and tires mounted all the way from Iraq lol. (Dad did it). Well check it out centerline smoothies 20 by 8.5 on the back with 54 backspacing and 18 x8s on the front with 45 backspacing with one inch spacers on the front and back. Tires sizes I dont remember off the top of my head ill get back to you on that. I took a lot of time planning and using tire calculators and such and talking to guys on this site and i think it came out just how i wanted....old school hotrod style(although now she needs to be bagged...it will happen lol). 3 weeks till my midtour and new motor and etc/mini build...I am stoked. Let me know what you think....by the way the green truck i just bought for my dad, and its crazy they are the same year yet so different. I think the pick from the front with both of them is badass...All she needs is a paint Job and she will get that along with the 67 gmc front clip when i get back this summer.

Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs. Last edited by Andy4639; 12-13-2008 at 07:59 PM. |

Cool pick i want my dad and i to do something similar. I got a 69 LWB soon to be on air ride. And he has a 69 GMC 4x4 flat bed. Different ends of the spectrum but it would still be cool.
