Re: New wheels - What do you think

They go very well with the clean look your truck has.

BUT I am a sucker for a swb with rally wheels!

Re: New wheels - What do you think

I don't like them. I think you should just sell your truck to me...including the rally wheels....LOL.

It looks really sweet, dude!!!! Wouldn't change a thing.

I was expected to hafta kringe at another truck with some 20's or 22's. Those wheels look great.

Re: New wheels - What do you think

That looks like crap....


Just kiddin. I just put the exact same set-up on my truck, except I left the rims the gray color. Been thinking about going Med. Blue to match the truck. Now your truck REALLY has me thinking about doing it. Great job. Looks awesome! It's nice to see a sharp clean truck rollin' on 15's!

Re: New wheels - What do you think

Good looking wheels, what sort of drop do you have on your truck, that stance is pretty sweet looking!

Re: New wheels - What do you think

Thanks all, I really like them too. The drop I'm not real sure about. I bought springs from a guy who bought the same set for his truck. He had his and mine made at a shop in Sacramento Ca ~10 years ago. It rides good, but I'd go with spindels if I do it over.

Re: New wheels - What do you think

That's almost exactly what I'm planning on doing to my truck, save that I was thinking about keeping the wheel size the same on the front and rear. What do you have on there, exactly? Are they 8" wide in the rear, or 10"?

Now that's a good looking truck right there, I don't care who ya are. Vette style rallys look good on most anything, any color.

Re: New wheels - What do you think

The truck looks great and is pushing me more towards the 'vette styled rallies for my 'burb, but I will most likely go 16's or 17's.
I have 15's on my '91 Jimmy and like Boog said, they look great on most any vehicle.
