I like the silver because it shows the slots better than black.

dgwill · 02-23-2013, 12:17 PM

I intended to do something along the same lines with VW wheel clips. I'll have to take a look at the '45s.

Hey guys-thinking about changing up my rims/tires for my 69 stock (drum brakes) height. What's the biggest set of rims I can buy? are 22" too big? I honestly don't know.

Any advice would be great. Thanks!

Mr Chevorlet · 01-05-2014, 08:52 PM

Here are some 16" steelies with 235/85's

Mr C,

Your truck looks fantastic! Are those 16's 5" wide? The 235/85's look good on them.

Thanks NC67chev they are 6" wide. I had bought some 15" disc brake wheels I would use if I could not locate the 16's but I got lucky.

It all depends on what tickles your fancy. I personally like big wheels with lo-pro tires. I run 20/22's on my blazer and 22/24's on my shortbox. I think that big wheels only really look good if the truck is lowered.
Here's some pics.

iPad only let me post one pic at a time.
