215/75-15 on stock rims
With whitewalls and without, really happy with the look of the truck with the whitewalls

Only have the rears so far, still haven't nailed down the backspacing for the fronts yet. But they'll be 17x8 up front with 245/45/17 and 18x10 in the rear with 295/45/18. We're having the rear end narrowed 3 inches total to make them fit.

Thanks Dan, like your wheels too! I think maybe we'll use that picture for our Christmas cards this year lol.

I think this thread needs to come back to life.

Mine were purchased CHEAP from an OfferUp ad. Original Boyd's Smoothie 17x8's. A friend who lived nearer bought them. If I'd gone I'd have not bought them. One was damaged on the back, two needed straightening and all needed pro re-polishing. In the end they cost almost the same as just buying new.

But they look nice now. I'm probably going to end up changing them because they're a little too billet-y, too blingy for my taste but also the backspace isn't quite right.

I'll probably go with these Vintage WheelWorks or Coys wheels with gray spokes.

Here's my wheels on my '53. 15" Smoothies with wide white walls and chrome trim rings.

Simple, clean and classic is hard to beat.

I'm bookmarking this thread. I like the look of 15 inch smoothies.

Not actually mine but If I get my way, they will be. I came across this picture on the Hot Rod Site. Instantly loved them and put them on my wish list for my 52 build project. 15x10 and 15x8 Wheelsmith.

will 10in wide tires fit on the back of the ad trucks without a tub?

[Northern 52]

It was tubbed. Here is another shot and also a link to the entire article.

northern that black truck is amazing, and they have straight on views of it that I use to photochop and see what a particular mod will look like.

You need to go back to the tire store; they installed your hubcaps upside down

Intro wheels. 18" on rear and 17" on front.

[mongocanfly]

Very nice Kevin....

[Kevin Mac]

Thanks Greg, I haven't seen any others like them.

[mongocanfly]

Kevin..The intros are one of 5 choices I have picked out for mine when the day comes..I have my head set on a multi spoke wheel...lts always good to see them actually on a truck...

[my56chevytruck]

I looked hard and long for "American made" mag wheels in my price range. No luck, so I went with the set of Rocket Mags to match my truck.

[shibbby911]

Anybody running these style wheel vintiques in a 17? I can’t find pics anywhere.
