Man that's a beautiful truck. I love the look of the new versions of these wheels. Perfect combo of retro style and modern flare. Thanks for the pics.

Re: Slot lovers unite!

Test fitment today. I know people are running 33s on C20s, but I wanted to do a test fitment before I commit to buying new tires. There may be 1 good one between the four I have. I only have 1 set of lug nuts so I just did this side.

I still don't know if I'll have enough clearance when the suspension is loaded until I drive it. Looks pretty good. I still have quite a bit of cleanup to do, and then I'll need to paint the hubs or find something to cover those Dana 60 hubs.

Old Skool is the rule.....

I found (2) 6 lug 15 x 8-1/2 Indy Aluminum Slots and (2) 15 x 7 Western Aluminum slots via internet searches. Rear tires are 33x12.5x15, fronts are 235-75-R15.

Now, unfortunately, with the Doctor bills ever mounting, a 1 year old baby girl, and some changes at work....looks like I'll be saying goodbye to it. Sometimes it's difficult not to get a little "hacked off" at the way things turn out. But I know where a couple more trucks are...so when things get settled down again, I'll start over.
