5x5 22's & 24's

So I converted my 64 chevy over to 5x5 bolt pattern using 87 suburban 3inch drop spindles and rotors. And Early classic 5 lug axles on the rear, thinking it would be easy to find wheels 5x5 bolt pattern? I want to run 22's up front and 24's in the back! I dont want to spend alot of money on billet wheels. I like chrome wheels! What wheel brands are out there that still make 5x5 bolt pattern? I want a simple 5 spoke wheel in chrome! Any help and pictures would be great!

Re: 5x5 22's & 24's

Boss makes a nice 5 spoke for 5x5, but I don't know if they go up to 24's...

Big wheels + correct backspacing + desired style + small price = hard to find

You'll probably have to comprimise 1 of the 4 if the budget is strict. Going on websites and looking up wheels that fit 96 impalas will help you see what's out there. A couple websites are:

bigwheels.net, and
superbuytires.com

I'm in the same boat as you (but just looking for 22's all around), so if you find a nice wheel, post it up!

Re: 5x5 22's & 24's

Thanks Guys!
I'm running a Porterbuilt Dropmember up front so that gives me alittle extra room on offset. My rear is a 65 burban with 5 lug axle conversion. 5.5 back spacing was recomended to run with setup. What do you guys think of this Boss wheel?

Those are the 333's...a corner shop has 'em here in Sac, and I don't really like the all chrome ones. They look a little cheap on the rack, but may look totally different mounted. I think the black with chrome inserts make a big difference on them like pictured below, but may not fit your theme.


The 335s put off more of a smoother look:

I saw this craigslist ad and then saw your post. But I do see spacers in the picture that aren't mentioned. That might help or you might not need them but anyways here's an option for you.
