Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics

I just installed a set of 1970's 6 lug Jeep Wagoneer 15" aluminum slots. They are hub centric, 7 inches wide with 4" of back space. The tires are 235/75R15 but I might go smaller. More photos once I get her off the jack stands.

Looks great. Yes, with those wheels and tire combo, it will look like a pickup truck, not a race car.

No race car here just a C20 pickup. The 19.5 wheels and tires made a difference in looks and longer legs.

Is that a bend in the lip at 11 o'clock or is that the weld joint?
