Yezzi nailed it with this combo. I would like to see it done with 20" Centerlines Smoothies.

Well, if we harken back to the late 70's and early to mid 80's ---- this look is the "I can't afford Centerlines or Cragar SS's yet" look

i wouldn't mind seeing the smoothies pulled off on that truck as well, many people are not that partial to the smoothies...to each their own...i personally love a set of smoothies on a square body laid out...i've always wondered too, do people machine smoothies to create their own custom rim?

I just call it stock dropped. That's the way I like 'em. I like all the factory trim, wheels, interior, factory color, etc, but lowered.
Don't want anything shaved. These trucks were beautiful when new and the stock look has stood the test of time.

Not trying to jack your thread, but all this needs are the centers painted to rock the look I am talking about.

I am dying to see these wheels white with the caps! I hope I didn't offend him in his thread when I said it.

You guys are good!

Yep - P235/75R15. Those are what came on it so I threw another set on without really thinking about it.

If I had it to do over again (or when I do it over again) I'll go a little bigger.
