47-55.1 20" wheels in a 47-54 chevy truck - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The Blue truck that Groyd posted the link for is one of those few that looks decent with the big wheels and the 18's on the front have a lot to do with that.

Personally I don't like the looks of the big wheels and ultrma low profile tires on the older trucks and the "Progressive truckers" have slapped me for voicing that opinion previously but that stems more from the fact that the local tire stores seem to only sell the ugly gaudy wheels that look like the guy who designs the battle axes for World of Warcraft designed them. Locally I believe it's called the Gangsta bling look.
