I love em

RWJJR · 03-31-2008, 08:02 AM

Great choice i love rallys of all kinds,the 5 on 5 pattern will fit.I think there may be some rubbing issues if you have spindles.Someone else should chime in who knows more than me.

1980GMC · 03-31-2008, 08:12 AM

I think if you run more than a 2.5" drop spindle 15" rims will rub on the lower control arm. Nice choice of wheels

spr85gmc · 03-31-2008, 08:13 AM

im running the stock 15 (i believe)now so i pretty sure it will be fine but, isnt that what the grinder is for? also i not set on 15x8 or 15x 7 in the front that you guys think?

My 72 C-50 has 20 inch rims...but its a 2 1/2 ton truck. Cars and trucks dont need 20 inch rims....I hate trends.

spr85gmc · 03-31-2008, 05:49 PM

dont get me wrong 20's and bigger always are nice to have but no 1 sticks out any more nowadays theres even geos sittin on 22's

spr85gmc · 04-01-2008, 03:10 AM

with the offset will they tuck

tds · 04-01-2008, 03:50 AM

whats the offset to tuck? still got get off my butt and measure. also sorry for being with the trends. mine will have 20+ " rims. guess thats what i see in my head when i'm driving my truck.

smashingchuck · 04-01-2008, 05:02 AM

why not go with a bigger diameter in the same style? I got TONS of compliments on my steel 17s. everyone loves them and the rubber isn't that much more that 15s. I'd go with a 8" wide in the front with 4.75 backspacing all around. Thats what I have. Also if Summit can't get them just call Wheel Vintiques direct they will make you whatever you want. Same kind of rims I have.

spr85gmc · 04-01-2008, 05:21 AM

its not that i dont want 20+ wheels just cant find what i like, i am really un decicive when it comes to wheels i d0ont want my truck just to blend in. If i dont get these i was also thing something along the lines of 20/22 but its my dd not really sure about the ride quality.

i really dig the 15 i know there smaller than most wheels out there now but i like them im just not sure how to make sure they fit with the offset i keep telling my self just to order them but scared they wont fit HELP....................

SCOTI · 04-04-2008, 03:11 AM

15x7 w/4.00BS (F) & 15x10 w/5.00BS (R) should fit w/a mild drop (mild = 4/6 or 5/7 drops). The key will be as others mentioned: drop spindles should be limited to 2.5" to limit wheel interference. You will still need to trim the a-arms & possibly do a little clearancing of the calipers.
