20 inch staggered Boss 338

[joejoe61]

I have been working on a 69 chevy which I have converted to disc brackes all the way around. I had a set of Boss 338 and they are awesome, but the problem is they will not fit around the front hub. The wheel spacer comment is O.K. but really have to watch as I figured that I needed a 1" wheel spacer. The major thing that I didn't care for was the fact with my lowered 2.5" drop spindle was the face of the wheel was too far out and didn't fit my taste. I ended up taking the 2.5" drop spindle and bought the special designed CPP series which brings the wheel mounting surface in an additional inch for running wide tires.

I am still in search for a wheel that favors the front hub. I seen in the forum that the Coy C5 accomodates us C10 owners.

I have also been to discount tire and consulted with them about the old school rims. They claim they work but just nervous due to the saleperson I was conversing with.

Bottom line - I converted the truck to 5x5 disc brakes thinking things would be easier for wheel choice. Boy was I wrong but the forum supplies great feedback and something will arise.

I will keep posting my rim research and good luck.

the coys will most likely require some "clearancing" to fit as well. at least mine did
