My NEW used wheels :o) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ratpackv8sonly · 08-14-2008, 08:38 PM

First lets start with the look of the old ones.

Truck is a little dirty from sitting for the last two years in outside.

Now the new ones.

)

Just dont know if I like the look of the offset of these ones. Thats the bad part about getting used wheels.

So let me know what you all think looks best.

New ones look great and so did the old ones. Did you keep the old ones so you can change up the look if you want to?

Jcentsr6 · 08-14-2008, 08:47 PM

I like both...but have always loved Indy 5 slots.

thirdstreettito · 08-14-2008, 08:48 PM

I like the old ones better...

ratpackv8sonly · 08-14-2008, 08:50 PM

Yeah I have both sets. Dont think I will sell the 5 slots any time soon. May sell the TT2s lator down the road.

What's up with the hoop in the bed?

sierragrande71 · 08-14-2008, 09:14 PM

I like the TT2's myself, have a set soon to be going on my '71 SG.

ratpackv8sonly · 08-14-2008, 09:22 PM

Hoop in the bed was the rollbar for my blazer but Im not going to put it in anymore. So now it in the bed till I find someone that wants it or I find a spot for it.

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-14-2008, 09:34 PM

I like it

Cool, you made me nervous....

big_al_71 · 08-14-2008, 10:08 PM

like the new look better!!!!

ratpackv8sonly · 08-14-2008, 10:43 PM

Thanks for the replies. For now the TT2s will stay on. 5 slots are going in the shead next to the stock wheels/hubcaps. Now just to get working on her again.

Better yet, you have a PM!

68Stepbed · 08-15-2008, 09:15 AM

I dig the new ones better, but it needs a little more tire in front.

FWIW, those are TT D's not TTII's

OrangeCrush1970 · 08-15-2008, 01:59 PM

I was gonna ask what was wrong w/ the old one's then i saw the torque thrust's...bad a$$. You can't beat em!

**michael bustamante** · 08-15-2008, 02:41 PM

hey Neightbor!!
I like em both. Ive been lookin for those slots for awhile. If you decide to sell either set of rims in the near future, let me know and I`ll drive down and pick em up.

Zumo · 08-15-2008, 03:20 PM

Now paint the truck jet black and you will be set.

I agree, the new ones are cool but, I'm a fan of the old slots

69_C10 · 08-15-2008, 04:47 PM

I like the new...but the old ones aren't bad at all. I see your dilemma.

ratpackv8sonly · 08-15-2008, 06:14 PM

Yeah I noticed that I said TT2s and ment to just say TTs. Was in the middle of doing 5 things at once and just left it. Also posted my blazer rollbar in the wrong forum.

As of now I wont be selling any of the rims. Will just swap them back an forth. Again thanks for all the comments.
