what do you guys think about this new look for my 83.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Before -

After -

Those are Boss 338 wheels with the gray center, 18s up front and 20s out back, unsure id width as their a buddies of mine and i may be buying them not sure yet though. Tell me what you guys thing, keep the previous wheels or go with the Boss wheels.

Looks good! It looks much better without the visor, asfar as the wheels they both look good but im a fan of chrome

71swb4x4 · 08-06-2011, 08:10 PM

I kind of like the other wheels. I think the visor really dates the look, and the other wheels look better with that look.
It would really help to have two side shots to compare.

boss 338's look killer, not sure about the gray centers on a red truck though

ProStreet83C10 · 08-06-2011, 10:07 PM

if it were mine, i would buy the wheels, even in gray they look great on your truck with that drop.

**lolife99** · 08-06-2011, 10:12 PM

338's,... except 20's on all 4 corners.

*JCampbell* · 08-06-2011, 11:35 PM

I like the "original" wheels. Big hoops are overrated.

67_SS396 · 08-07-2011, 03:09 AM

I like the 50/51's better, but go with what you like best.

liked it better before the old school wheels are 10 times better looking

LONGHAIR · 08-07-2011, 08:54 AM

I like the newer wheels a lot. I would buy them in a second.

**N2TRUX** · 08-07-2011, 04:12 PM

Do you really need us to tell you? The 338's really set your truck on fire...

1LowToy · 08-07-2011, 06:28 PM

Sorry But I like the old school wheels

If I wanted a Ricer truck I would have bought one

lilpoindexter · 08-07-2011, 07:03 PM

Just paint the brake drums black, and you are good

Goats86 · 08-07-2011, 08:32 PM

bigwheel15 · 08-07-2011, 08:34 PM

Ok, I am confused. I understand you don't care for the 18/20 combo, but how does that make it a "ricer truck"?.

75ChevyGuy · 08-08-2011, 09:16 AM

I personally like the way it looked before, maybe because it had the same stance as my truck or something. I think maybe if they were both 18's it would look alittle better. The bigger rim out back kinda makes it look like it's doing a nose dive. But hey, it's your truck, if you like it that's all that matters!

92GMCDriver · 08-08-2011, 10:58 AM

The 338's look good but im a big fan of 15's with a set of wide meats on em so i say keep your old ones on there.

Hevy · 08-08-2011, 11:03 AM

New wheels with huge vented rotors...

willett · 08-08-2011, 12:20 PM

i like the visor and the old wheels!

white walls work on these trucks!!
