Any traditional low riders out there? Wire rims maybe?

I'm looking for any photos or links to trucks with wire wheels to be spacific but would love any related pics.

I can buy 18-20" wire wheels locally for $200 or less for four so I'm thinking of flipping the hubs to get a deep dish over standard offset and trying to tuck them this summer.

Thanks guys!

There was a pic of a black truck with wires awhile back that was sweet.

Re: Any traditional low riders out there? Wire rims maybe?

I feel dirty.........

I actually, somehow, someway, really like the looks of that primered 67/68. maybe it's because the rims look like 17" or 18"?

I need to now take a shower........

Don't be too hard on yourself, I am actually kinda diggin it too. The one in the craigslist add looks pretty cool too. Kinda like seeing something different for a change, the blue one looks fresh out of a snoop dog video.

Agreed, those rims compliment the truck nicely, especially with the white wallz. Are those off an early vette'?

Re: Any traditional low riders out there? Wire rims maybe?

I like wire's. I like 67-72's. I however, don't really like them together. But this truck looks really nice. If ya ask me, wire's look a hundred time's better on 60-66's.

Re: Any traditional low riders out there? Wire rims maybe?

Old thread but my .02 cents i think 67-72 is more of a muscle truck id rather see it on polished 17s or bigger or rally wheels
