Re: new Mobsteel wheels for the 68
Could you please post a pic with those wheels and your truck aired up a little. I only have a 5/7 drop no Airride , and I would like to get an idea if how they would look.
Thanks.

Re: new Mobsteel wheels for the 68
Chance we knew the truck was originally green so we sanded to we found it. The spots where the red primer look is just to give it a little rougher look.

jondancer I can get it out one day this week and get those for you.

Looks great bro! Did you have to modify anything to make the rears fit? I would like something like that on my stepside.

Re: new Mobsteel wheels for the 68
Looks awesome man! I like the centerlines, but see them a lot, and they get pretty boring. These have so much more character and style!

No I didn't need any modification to make them fit. Adam at Mobsteel did a great job at getting the backspacing just right.

The backspacing changed a couple of time because of the retooling they had to do. Call Adam at Mobsteel if you are ordering. He can set you up.

Re: new Mobsteel wheels for the 68
Love this truck and I am leaning towards these wheels as well. What size tire are you running and did they sell you the center caps? How do they fasten?

Re: new Mobsteel wheels for the 68
Beautiful!! Can you share a shot of the bed? I am curious if you had to tub the rear at all to clear the rear wheels. Please let me know! I've got a longbed step and a set of 20's for it as well. I am concerned that when my bag setup is done that I will need to tub the rear in addition to raising the bedfloor.
