Looks like a fuel door in the bed. Where is your gas tank and did you buy it or make it. Thanks Jeff

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics

I always figured I'd get really deep baby moons.
My truck had these on them when I bought it.
I like them a lot.
295/50 R15

I'm not sure.
The tires are 295/50 R15
Using this, I would guess they are 10's

I'll try and get an actual measurement when I get it in my shop/barn.

From my LostMy65 thread. I still have the 8x15's on. Maybe eventually I'll go with a tire profile a little taller than my 295/50-R15

They are 10" wide with 295/50-R15 all the way around.
When I mocked up the Drop Spindles with Discs, I noticed it was going to move my wheels out almost 1/2 per side. So I've been keeping my eyes out for the same wheel at 8" wide. I'll do the 8"s in the front and the 10"s in the rear.
Set them up so I can keep this look.

.
After watching the ads for over a year, I finally found the same wheels in 8".
They came with 31x10.5-R15's so I thought I'd mount them up just for kicks. Not my taste.



.
The 295/50-R15's are about 26 inches tall. So maybe an extra inch of profile -28's.. That would be 1-1/2 inch less in profile from the 31's on there now.

How did you get those to fit the rear? Having a panel myself, there is not a lot of room back there. I couldn't get a set of 15x8.5 with 3" BS to fit without being really close to the fender lip.
