Re: Rallys with trim or cragar ss?

I like Cragars, they give it a nice vintage look. If you really want vintage though, find some 15x10 slots for the back!

Re: Rallys with trim or cragar ss?

I'm not opposed to the classic Cragar SS wheels, but I have to vote for Rallys because that's what I sport on my own truck... 15x8 front & 15x10 out back! If it was me, since you already own them, I'd spiff up the rallys with fresh coat of rattle can paint after you get your truck painted and see what you think before dropping the cash for any new wheels... Just a thought.

Heres my truck with with rallys... '79 Sierra Classic

Wow, what a beautiful classic looking truck. I like the rallys on there.
What kinda drop do you have on there? Static? How low?

Thanks! It's a work in progress... 5"/7" static drop as it sets in that picture. I'm running 15x8 rallys up front with BFG 235/70/15's, and 15x10 rallys out back with BFG 295/50/15's. The front is dropped with spindles & a full coil cut off the springs. The rear-end is flipped with dropped shackles.


I hope to have it setting a little closer to the pic below in the future... Unfortunately it's more costly and a lot more work that a simple photochop! Haha...

excellent, i love the drop. your truck inspires me to swap my stepside for a fleetside and run full trim. decisions decisions.
do you have a build thread or anything on it?
