20 & 22 inch wheels

Anyone have some pics of square bodies running 20's in front and 22's out back?

Re: 20&22 inch wheels

Don't get too excited. You are the only one that likes them. I borrowed those from my buddy Keith. They look great on his 67 & 68. I personally don't like them on my truck.

I will state my disclaimer as always about staggered wheel height on these trucks. Due to the shape of the fender openings, the only way I feel 20/22's look good is if the truck is slammed hard. If your going with a static drop go with 20's or 22's but not both.

Re: 20&22 inch wheels

my only problem with the staggered size is that they make the 20s look so small and really understates how big the rim actually is.

Good luck with your truck.

Re: 20&22 inch wheels

I have 20s on my truck right now with no drop. I have a 5/7 djm drop and I want to run 20/22s. I was afraid that the 22 in the back would be too much of a rake. I think i'm going to bag the rear even though I am goin to hate cuttin my truck up.

Re: 20&22 inch wheels

I pesonaily do not like the whole fad of rims being so big like 20s' on up on trucks or just cars in general but that just my .02 cents

Re: 20&22 inch wheels

I think i'm going with the grey coys 20/22. Any opinions on flip kit with
20/22s? And does anyone know the back spacing I will need for a 20x8.5/22x9.5?

Well thanks for that bit of information. Personally I don't like 15" wheels, but that's just me.
