Need Feedback on Coy's C-5 Wheels

Looking to buy some coy's for my 67 stepper in the next few weeks. Going with 18x8 front and 20x10 rear. Are these guy's good to deal with and do these wheels fit this truck ok. I have disk up front and drum in the rear, going to run 45 or 50 series tires. Also taking ideas on wheels of same style with cheaper price.

I would look 40 series tire.
45 and 50 series tires are tall in a 20" wheel.
Consider 20's up front also. I just think it looks better.

Re: Need Feedback on Coy's C-5 Wheels

The guys were good to deal with.....The price is super reasonable.....18x8 and 20x10 is what I have in my truck with a 4/6 ECE drop rear tires 295/40/20 and the front tire 255/50/18.. Truck rides awesome and it is the look that
" I LIKE" !!! of course you are going to get 1000 different opinions but you know what they say about opinions. Also if you do a "Search" for Coys there are countless threads about them. The coys are the next torque thrust as far as popularity...this topic has been beaten to death in the last year...

I like those black Coy's! I wanted 24's on mine, but got to thinking from this last car show I went to that a beefer tire looks great!

I have the C-5s as well and love them, I would say get chrome though, I got the polished aluminum and they aren't very easy to keep clean.
