20" Coys C-5's (grey) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

SCOTI · 12-15-2008, 11:58 PM

I purchased these earlier in the year for my 68 Beaters rebuild but the city code enforcement crackdowns have caused me to dismantle the project.

They're called C-5's because they fit over Vette C5 rotors & calipers (unlike ARE TT2's). The front wheels are 20x8.5's, 5.25"bs w/255-40-20's. The rears are 20x10's, 5.50"bs w/295-40-20's & they are the 5 on 5 truck bolt pattern. Tires are Toyo Proxes ST's w/about 10-20 miles. They were installed on my 68's rolling chassis for some pics of a C5 big brake kit & then again on my 74 for additional pics & one trip to the local cruise spot & have been stored in my garage since.

I would prefer a local sale so you can personally inspect them which would eliminate any doubts . . ..... $1800 obo. SOLD!

Here's a pic of a 68 w/the same size tires so you get an idea of how low a truck will go w/them . . ....

Good deal for someone close.
What's going to happen with your truck?

Well.... Of course you already know the wheels/tires are for sale

.

The front fenders & swb bedsides have been bodyworked & primed so they'll get wrapped & stored for future use/bartering. The SBC Dropmember goes on a shelf until summertime & will eventually find its way under my 74 (the C5 brakes will join as well). The frame will get 'tweaked' a little more, my C4 Dropmember will get installed & I'll swap the body from my RestoRod project onto it.

The 350 (out of N2TRUXs' 77) that's mated to a 700r4 along w/the rear 12bolt, & the air aide system will find it's way to another 60's GM truck.

I'm basically forced to put my build in a shop vs. out in my driveway. I figured my RestoRod has been waiting for so long that if I have to pay for any truck getting built @ a shop, it's going to be that one & not a beater.

**lolife99** · 12-16-2008, 12:44 AM

I hate to see the death of your beater. I always liked that truck.

Spray-Bomb · 12-16-2008, 12:59 AM

Wish I had the money for em

I hate to end the project as well but my other truck is the better investment (for what's left of my sanity @ least). I put the cab/parts in storage so there's always the future.

Thanks but I've already got a Hobart (Miller). Would be a good trade though

.

STOCKISH · 12-16-2008, 10:14 AM

Cool, thanks man. Let me know if you change your mind.

Chevy_Man · 12-16-2008, 12:20 PM

Well do you have anything in stone yet????? Did you have them on your 68 with the body on at anytime? I was wanting to see what they would look like with my drop....

Eric

No commitments. I don't have any pics that would help though because when they were installed on the 68, it was just a cab/chassis.

The pics of N2Billets red truck above has the exact same front size (the rears were a little different). In those pics, the truck has 2.5" dropped spindles, air bags, & stock GM style a-arms.

Chevy_Man · 12-16-2008, 01:12 PM

Well what i have is 2 1/2 drop spindles and 2" drop springs in front and 4" springs and 1 1/2" drop blocks in the rear...fleet side bed i was just wondering if there would be any issues at my ride height....

Eric

Heights would work w/your set-up. I know they worked on the red truck & it was approx +6" drop up front @ ride height.

temogarza48 · 12-16-2008, 02:26 PM

what company makes these rims?

Chevy_Man · 12-16-2008, 02:32 PM

I just may be interested in them... I sent you a pm with some more questions...

Eric

As SCOTI stated, you shouldn't have any issues running these with that setup. Plus he already has the spacers for the caps. Buy them, mount them, and enjoy them...

Chevy_Man · 12-16-2008, 03:23 PM

What do you mean by spacers for the caps?

Eric

**Hart_Rod** · 12-16-2008, 03:28 PM

Scotti,

A few questions: How tall are the front and rear tires? Did you have the narrow axle in back of your truck? (67-70?) I replaced the axles on the stock rear end on my 69 Burb, so it has the narrow rear end with 5 lug. I'm interested but would like to make sure the backspacing will work. Thanks,

Rob

71swb4x4 · 12-16-2008, 03:33 PM

Great Deal Scoti!

Eric, he is referring to the spacer between the center cap and the wheel. You can see it on the close-up picture above. Many of Coys wheels have center cap issues on this era of trucks, the center cap on the wheel interferes with the bearing cap on the hub. The little spacer that you see in the picture pushes the wheel center cap out enough so the bearing cap on the rotor will clear.
