Picking the Right Wheels
I have a 72' c-10 fleetside, short/wide bed, lowered 3/4, with 5 lug (disc/drum) set up. Has anyone put American Racing Torque Thrust II on their truck? If you have, what size did you use, what back space did you use and how did they fit up?
Please let me know of any better alternative for wheels. I would like to use 16" or 17" wheels but want a better picture on the pros and cons from folks who have actually used them. Thanks, would appreciate some feedback....bossrod |

Re: Picking the Right Wheels
I've looked at the sight and got some good ideas but there were no real specifics about Torque Thrust II.
Thanks for the input Quote:

Re: Picking the Right Wheels
Ive got them on my CST. 15 inch wheels though...stock ride height too. I love the look of a lowered truck but it's not what I did.

Re: Picking the Right Wheels
Here's my old 72. I sold it to my buddy and he put the wheels on it.
They are 17x8 inch Torque Thrust II's.

Re: Picking the Right Wheels
my 17x8 torque thrust II's have a 4.5" backspacing 5x5 lug pattern looks great no rubbing handles great.
