My 68 has had the same wheels for 20 years-- first picture. The truck has looked a like for 20 years and I was wanting something different. I just changed my truck to 5 lug and put steel wheels on it. A guy I know suggested the Orange and then he painted the original hub caps black and silver as original and then put a orange bowtie with maroon outline to match the truck. What do you think? Sorry for the pictures but this is all I have for now.

Looks good Todd-nice to see something different! I see you have the same problem I have-I keep forgetting to tell the guys to put the wheel weights on the inside of the rim! hehe

truck4man · 11-27-2010, 12:38 AM

Here's mine. I've been thinking of putting some 15x10 aluminum wheels on it but everybody tells me to leave it alone. I'm still undecided and would love some input.

I like the old school stuff but not necessarily stock. Just what I had in high school!

I was thinking about getting the same set for my 77' Chevy C10! Do the front wheels have 3 3/4 backspacing? Is the second pic the front wheel and how well did it fit?

First off...Welcome to the board. Secondly, the post you quoted is over a year old and the person who posted it has had their account suspended.

whitesswj · 02-12-2011, 11:20 PM

Here's mine. I wish I knew what kind they were. I kinda Like them. Only seen them on a few other trucks.

I wish they were wider too. But all this wishing makes me think, "Wish in one hand and...."

ChevLoRay · 02-12-2011, 11:29 PM

Like these so much, I'm gonna put a set of 16's on the '96, running the same trim ring and cap. Don't wanna mess with perfection.
