Scored a new set of wheels for my 71 gmc 2500
Well I gave up on finding some good slot mags for the 71 gmc 2500, and then stumbled across these almost perfect 04 take offs with caps for $200. just ordered a set off new lug nuts to adapt for the caps. Now I just need some tires.
Here's the new wheels And the truck they're for Posted via Mobile Device

They will look awesome on there. I have seen a few pics of trucks with those wheels and I liked them. Some feel they are inset too far but I dont see it, maybe that was an older drum brake truck with a narrower track

I just got the same set for my 69! I have to get the chevy center caps from the guy, but they look pretty good I think.

I like them, some people think they look like they set too far in on the rear but I think they look about right.

I had a set on a 69 C-20 and i think the inset is too much. It made mine ride differnt. But they do look good!

I think they will look good, especially with a 285 on them.

Here is my bucket of bolts with the late model wheels. They will look alot better when the center caps and lug covers installed.

Ya, not so much fat fingered as in a hurry and not paying attention.
