Re: rally wheels

I am going the same route cb,on my current project (61 on a 63 chassis with 74 fr x member)
I will be running a combo of 5 lug rallies on the front and 6 lug rallies ( lol when I find a pair that aren't 400 miles away) on the back,until I find a 71-72 rear (Again one thats closer).
All should be good with both senarios,fitmentwise,but the later rear end will fill the wheelwell even better
Not so much fill it as bring the tire closer to the boxside,but it'll all fit

Re: rally wheels

Here's my '65 Suburban with 8" rallies. We just finished a front disc brake conversion, a 3 1/2" drop in the front, and a 4" drop in the rear. No clearance issues.

Re: rally wheels

Ok. Sounds good. The guy I got the wheels from had painted them
Yellow. What am I looking at price wise to have them blasted and powder coated or painted? any ideas

Re: rally wheels

My powder coater charges $160 for a set of 4 wheels to blast and powder them. However I know he charges a lot less that what powder coating shops in other areas charge.
