Re: Frankentruck

What do y'all think?
1) current 15x8 truck rallies, but get factory, metal center caps to go with them
2) 15x8 4 nub steelies
3) 15x8 4 nub steelies with Biscayne hubcaps
4) 15x7 Western Slot Mags
Not pictured) 15x8 4 nub steelies with original 63 c10 hubcaps (would need to find caps)

I want to switch it up a bit, but I don't know what to decide.

I know I can get plastic repop center caps, but I would rather have metal ones if I keep the rallies.

If I go with the 15x8 steelies, I'll need to find 3 more of them. (Just bought this one yesterday)

If I go with the slot mags, I'll need to find either 2 more 15x7s or 4 15x8s (Because I drive the truck so much, I want to be able to rotate my tires)

Please comment below!

Also, I'm waiting on some parts to show up before I can swap in the overdrive trans. I'm hoping to have that done before classes start back on the 14th of January.
