Plain white steelies with BFGoodrich All Terrain T/As for me. One of these days I'll do something about that paint...

22" transports. Weigh a ton though. There's a couple of vendors out there making same wheels but lighter. Still cheaper to go GM transports. I still have to paint mine, but like the look.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics

Looks great
Did you have to use a spacer in the back to push it out toward the fender?
Just curious as 5" BS seems like a lot.

Nice looking wheels. Did you convert to 5 lug or use adapters? And what is the backspacing?

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics

255/45-18 all the way around without touching a thing (well inside rear wells are pinched at the top)... The tires are rated for 180 mph..lol.. but they were the most reasonable I could find... 18" is the odd duck in wheels and tires it seems.

American Racing Torqlite wheels. I don't remember if they are 18 x 7 or 8... I think 7...

This is an old pic... but wheels and tires are same...

I'm running 16"x8" Mickey Thompson Classics with P255/55/16" tires. Plenty of clearance even with disc brakes and drop spindles.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics

I think my wheels are boring. The only real problem I think is they need to be a differnt color. I was either going to go with an off white or black. I think black without hub caps would look better.

Old custom classic trucks have soul. Their dashboards aren't plastic, and they've survived both the best and worst of what the 20th century had to offer. For the owners of these trucks, it's often the same story. Through both good and bad times they persevered, until one day they could turn the key and roll up in a customized truck everyone with good taste would admire.Custom Classic Trucks
