15x7 Supremes with Firestone 215/70/15's. The Firestones really give them the vintage look without having to go bias ply or the super expensive Silvertowns. And forgive me if I put up too many pictures of my pickup...maybe I should take new ones to change it up a bit.

Mangels wagon wheels, 235/75/15 Dunlop Radial Rovers for now, will be replacing them with 30x9.5 BFG A/Ts this spring.

Mine. Depending on the day I either hate them or think they are okay. Obviously need to make a change..

timjt · 02-23-2011, 10:32 AM

hey sleepingbag, maybe if you painted them that dark red like bad70sbchevy (second from bottom on page 4) they would look good, or paint the middle black and leave the outer ring. Just to spruce them up till you can get new ones that you like better. I don't think there too awfull.

I have thought about modifying them, just a little concerned about ruining them , but I do need to do something about them...

timjt · 02-23-2011, 10:57 AM

I really like your truck btw. Is there a clear coat over that black? is it primer or actuall paint?

sleepingbag · 02-23-2011, 10:57 AM

They are aluminum... thought about shooting them with that duplicolor shadow paint, but they arent highly polished so dont know what they will look like.

68Stepbed · 02-23-2011, 01:06 PM

May I ask How deep those 22's in the back are and what size tires are you sporting?

We need this post...
For every greasy kid who wants rubber bands instead of tires...this post will be there!
For every mullet sporting swb step side driver who cant decide between turbines or slots...this post will be there!
For every geriatric, stock height only reactionary who considers anyone sporting rims over 16.5 inches to be a gang banging rapist...this post will be there!
I forgot my point? Oh yeah...bump.
Btw please, please include b.s., tire sizes, brand name etc...not just rim size

what he said.
