were Chief and Turkey separated at birth?

Just your average G78 Cokers on powder coated original steel wheels. They were supposed to be metallic copper.....but turned out a little closer to root beer. I like the color, so I didn't fuss about it.

^^nice^^

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

Thanks ! It's come a long ways in the 4 months that I've owned it ! This was what I started with. I went through 9 wheels to find 4 that weren't bent.

62 with 22" Kaotics. 2" adaptors up front. spacers in the back.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

Here is my 66 with Factory alloy wheel from a 2000 Tahoe. I used 2" aluminum spacers ordered from an ebay vendor. Told him what hub/axle I had & what wheel I was using & he made sure they fit right the first time. Included correct new studs & lug nuts plus correct old lug nuts.

I'm running BFG 235/70 x 16 tires. No Rubbing anywhere.

Scot_Douglas

Are you running adapters on the Camaro wheels or has you truck been changed to 4-3/4 bolt pattern?

I like them. I have 5 on 5 in the front of mine and 6 lug in the back, but I have a 9 inch ready to go in the back that is 5 on 4-3/4".

If this works, I have attached a picture with aluminum mags, 6 lug and a picture of how it sits now with 5 lug rally's in the front. It needs to come down another couple of inches.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

I decided to get my ralley's powder coated, so here is the difference, not mounted yet.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

I'm running two different pairs of adapters. :D

Front, I have the 5x5" disc brake upgrade and chose an adapter that went to 5x120mm and was 1.5" (38mm) thick to account for the 39mm camaro offset.

Rear, I have a Tbird SC IRS setup with discs. It's 64" wms-to-wms, so I chose the thinnest adapter (1") I could to try to keep the wheels inside the fenders. :lol:

This pic shows the stance a bit better:

I lucked out. :D

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

I know the wheel is kinda hard to see, but it's a stock steel from a 92 C/K. I painted an old school GMC logo over the bowtie on the centercap to fit the truck.

This is really the best pic I have that shows my wheels and no, that's not my lady. She posed with the truck for an online magazine.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

Super clean truck man, killer stance patina and wheel combo bro.:metal:

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

Plan on switching to these 15x7, painted Ansen slotted mags in the rear mounted on 275/70/15s and am looking for and pair of 15x5 gray torques to run in the front. What do you guys think? Can anyone point me in the direction of a good pair for a good price?

Since post #6, my 15x5 front wheels were replaced with a pair of 15x7’s that match the rear:

Yup those are badass! "The Pusher" inspired the skinny torques! Ha! Yours are exactly what I'm going for, but in a 15x5.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

I still have the 15x5’s off my truck sitting in the basement. If you’re interested shoot me a PM. Here’s what they looked like on the truck. The spokes are currently painted black.
