These 6 lug rocket racing wheels are sweet. Pretty expensive at $400.00 each. Looks like they only come in 20" size. I'm gonna keep my eyes open for used slot mags. I like the old dull looking ones

I stand corrected.

6 lug slot

Dont have them on the truck yet, but finally got them painted with the tires mounted. These are 16 inch steelies from Wheelsmith, painted, and using trim rings and hubcaps for the 41-46 trucks.

Just saw this thread pop back up to the top of the forum. Happy to be able to update with the wheels on the truck and looking real sharp!

I see a set on eBay that are the right size and price is ok, but not sure if its the angle of the pictures , but they don't look quite right... Like the metal the slots are cut in is flat instead of curved?

what size tire would you put on these? 225/60 r15 all around?

agnes the dog · 02-16-2015, 06:53 PM

Well, that didn't take long. Nice score!!!

57chevyman · 02-16-2015, 06:58 PM

Found them on Craigslist in Alabama . $75 extra (total ) for shipping. They look to be in great shape.

**Dan in Pasadena** · 02-17-2015, 01:33 AM

I've got 235/75's on my 15x7's but if I'd had the money I'd have had 65's on them. The 75's give the truck a bit of a cartoonish, "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" car look. But mine were takeoffs from Craigslist and waay cheap, so I'm not complaining.

57chevyman · 02-17-2015, 01:48 AM

When I bought my truck it had two new front tires , but the back tires were shot. So I got new back tires , different brand , but same size 31 x 10.5 r15 Not sure how that translates to 225 60, etc. I'm gonna go for a set of radial t/a , so I can sell my rally wheels with good rubber for decent $$ 225 60 is a nice looking size for 15x7
