Corvette Rally Wheels on a 1/2 ton pics?

Anyone have any pics of the "Old Style" Corvette rally wheels on your trucks? I would like to purchase a set , either 8" or 7" wide , Iv'e seen some with just chrome wheels and a cap. Not sure which one you guys think looks the best.

Not sure if I want to deal with all that chrome , keeping it from pitting, that was what I loved about my old rally's back in the day , pop the caps and trim rings off and just throw them on any tire machine. No worries about special weights or some Idiot breaking them...

any help appreciated...
PS: I know about the different bolt pattern required for our trucks.

These are old pics, taken back in '96/'97.

I had 7's on front, 8's on back. I ran the truck center cap for a different look.

I like these wheels, and considered running them on my new 77...only in a 17" size. But they aren't all that cheap any more. I paid $50 each back in '96 for these.

Those wheels go on dang near anything. I saw a newer jeep with a color matched set the other day and it looked real good.
