Your truck looks good now. And,at least those really are steelies that the OP was referring to.

Cooper33 · 03-07-2011, 02:11 PM

All original steelies on the 67, even original rubber on the spare.

Looks killer Packrat! I agree, with what you're saying though- I put 15x7s all around mine and I wish I would have went a bit wider in the rear...

oldblue1968chevy · 03-07-2011, 11:09 PM

looks great packrat! I love the bullet caps that you and mikej run.

just something a bit different.

Hey tcb-1!
A few questions;
Did you need spacers/adapters for the wheels to fit?
What tire size(s) are you running with those rims?
Thanx

SC C-10 · 03-08-2011, 08:07 PM

Rallies while under construction. Slots now.

morgan71 · 03-08-2011, 09:09 PM

Well I guess I am not really "on" them yet but they are under the frame now! 16x7 with some new military surplus 9.00-16 Power King's

dougminton · 03-15-2011, 12:35 PM

Finally got mine back on rallies. Just cut a pair in two to widen to 15x12 for the rear.

cleanfreak · 03-15-2011, 08:40 PM

wow - I really love the redneck lathe!!

yunkyarddog · 03-22-2011, 11:21 PM

ok so i just bought rallies turned out to be 15x10 now the way it looks its the front defenetly not fitting back its a maybe any thoughts im totaly new to this

could try to fit the wheels and see for myself but they came off a 4x4 so tires dont fit on my slamed truck

cris well · 03-22-2011, 11:38 PM

mine isn't slammed but i cut about 1 1/2 coils off all 4 springs.

it has 10s with a 4 or 4 1/2" backspace. it looks like they would rub but they don't.

you could mount some used tires on them and see.

looks like the back sticks out pretty far or is it a wierd angle

cris well · 03-22-2011, 11:54 PM

yea they stick out a little--it's MT 29 12.50s on the back.

if you used some 255 70s or something similar so they'd stretch out they would probably work.

69trk · 03-23-2011, 10:04 PM

Here's mine, but i need to get some new tires on them so they will look right. These are just for moving the truck around for now.. Going to be putting some 295 drag radials on the back and some 225/70/15's up front...
