Dang... I feel like such a light weight.

We only got about 6" here in the Rock.

Plenty to make some snow ice cream though.
The kid's first taste of it.

that makes sense! its always nice to have parts you can choose from ,i have three sets of hub caps i can chose from..... so weekend cruse ins you can have the stock wheel and goodguys or truck nationals you can switch to the other wheel for a more custom look, huh?

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
It is amazing how well those polished up! Shows what a nice billet rim looks like vs coys polished rims and how they never get near that much shine to them...

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
i thought the fronts were in pretty nice shape for a polished wheel ...until i saw how nice the back looks, i got my Wizards Power Seal in yesterday also i am going to coat the front and back of the newly polished wheels with it tomorrow....hopefully it will keep them looking that way for a while !!

So what's the final size and backspacing after the re-hooping?
Also what size and backspace up front?

fronts are 20x9 with 6.5 backspace, and the rear are 22x10 with 7.5 backspace.... i am running the later model rearend so they should fit perfect !! this is the same front spacing as the wheels i had on it, only difference is the extra inch to the inside on the back and i think i am clear of everything there

Please post pics when you get the bed on and the rear wheels mounted.
I have these numbers for rear backspacing with the rear Dropmember:

Early Rearend: (65-69 Narrow version)
22x10 (5.5" backspacing)

Late Rearend: (71-87 *Wider version)
22x10 (6.25" backspacing)
* Because the rearend is 3/4" wider per side.
