18" and 20" steel wheels?

[klmore]

I use to work at the Arlington truck plant and I have never seen a set, but that was before the 22" wheels were a factory option.

Here is a link I found on exchanging them I guess http://69.5.8.8/forums/noncgi/Forum2/HTML/005130.html

Since no one else wants to admit they're a "Star Wars Geek";

That is actually a young Obi Wan Kanobi during the Clone Wars era. (Years before Luke was born and Darth Vador would appear. )

Not that it would change the weight of the wheel or anything...

CONVERT... didnt learn how to spell in FLA publc schools! LOL

..Centerline Smoothies are sick wheels but, they arent cheap! $339.99ea before paint, center caps and tires.... I am on a budget and shipping to Hawaii will KILL me for anything. Just talked to ClassicParts about shipping 2 front fenders to Hawaii... $370 for JUST shipping... OUCH! I am about to sell my truck and buy one that is already done from the mainland then ship it out here... it will probably be cheaper.

I bet the light weight Centerlines would help offset the shipping costs of the HEAVY Mobsteel (steel) wheels.

I really like the CENTERLINE Smoothies, just don't like the fact to don't come wider than 8.5-9" unless that changed recently.

Kieth, you are very right but, a set of MOBs are 998 plus like 80 for the center caps, thats still way under just a set of smoothies. I would still have to paint the centers and get caps for the smoothies.... in my head, the MOBs are cheaper. I am rollin a 383 stroker w/ 4.11 gears... wont have a prob spinning them.

Actually, I am looking onto those Escalade shipping wheels right now. if I can get a set with tires for 1500, I am at least rollin and just need to figure out a center cap... that puts me in way cheaper with the same look. <just how my head works>, I am on a budget with my toys....

[lolife99]

You can get smoothies in 10's,... but you have to step up to the cost of billet wheels.

Aren't you afraid the wheel width and backspacing will be way off for these old trucks?
And $1500???

Yikes.

thats what adapters are for. I have a 67 so, I have a ton of room to play with in the back... I can always make my wheel tubs wider too.

Sorry, I am not down with spending 3Gs for a set of wheels before tires. The military doesnt pay me that much and I have a family so... cheaper is better! Not everyone has 5 bills to drop on a set of custom wheels and tires.

My new wheels.

[808_67C10]

Nice! They look good... 20s look small on a old burb!
