Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
you know most would disagree with me in the age of 20" and 22" wheels,but i still love the old 73-87 6 lug truck rallye's on these trucks.when i was growing up in the late 70's and early 80's they were the in thing at the time.also they were the only nice wheels that would fit because aftermarket 6 lug wheels in that era were hard to find.i think these wheels look like they were made for the 60-66 trucks.just my 2 cents.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
I have several sets of the six lug Rallys on my trucks and I really like the way they look, also. In 1985, my Dad bought a brand new 1984 Chevy K1500 swb fleetside truck from the local dealership. He put a set of aftermarket wheels & tires on it and I became the proud owner of his take-offs. Here is a picture of my truck in zinc-chromate, 2-part epoxy aircraft primer in 1986 with the Rallys on it.
I also like the looks of the modern 8 lug Chevy truck wheels I put on my '66 Chevy C20 Custom Camper. |

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
Here's mine, '64 1/2T. I wanted the original style painted hub caps but even rough ones go for a fortune on ebay so I bought these mid 70's caps at a swap meet for $5 and painted them like the originals. Got $15 in them all done. Doesn't bother me because my trucks far from perfect. Just need taller tires now.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
Radir 3 rib wheels. 15 inch. 7in wide in front, 8in wide in back (I think, I cant remember). I forget the offset.
31x10.5 R15 on the rear 205x75 R15 front here it is with 205x75 15's all around, too small for my taste so I went with the large rears above. |

Rednose, that is sweet! That's exactly what I want to do with mine, except I am going to paint the wheels white.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
Hey Fella's, They're aftermarket smoothie steel wheels, these have the bumps around the center edge to hold the caps. Mine came from Early Wheel Co. but I believe Wheel Vintiques and maybe The Wheelsmith also carry them. They're all on the web if you do a search. Hope this helps.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
The way it came, well sort of! 16" x 9 1/5" ( Stock 16" wheels I widened ) with 255/55R16 all around. 4 1/2" backset if I remember correctly.
P.S. Stock look & original cap, never goes out of style!

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
15x7 painted smoothies w/ early 60s Buick caps & 205/70/15 thin white walls. I like 'em, but I want to get some 15x6 Supremes. All 60s old school for me!

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
Check this out! I was running a vintage set of 15x7 Sprint slotted mags that I found at an old tire shop & cleaned & polished them up. Only used them for about six months & went back to painted smoothies and ww's.
