Made up my mind!

Well after doing a drop spindle swap (on my 69 SWB 6 lug) and finding out that my front track is now 2 inches wider. I have to buy custom wheels. (oh darn) idea is to go with intro prowler 6. Fronts 18x8 and rears at 20x10 BS to fit just right

Re: Made up my mind!

I like the wheel choice!

Just curious, are you set on a 18/20 combo? I only ask because I've seen a few members post that they regret it and wish they went 20's all around...

Re: Made up my mind!

Congrats nice choice....

I had raceline make some 20x8.5 and 20x10 for my 6 lug truck.

I ran a 28" tire in the front and a 29.4" tire in the back and it looks perfect.

How low did you go in the front? I went with a 4.5" drop and I think I would have rubbed the inner fender on rough roads with that tall of a tire
