Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?
I like the more period correct wheels on these trucks. A few of the late model wheels look ok on these trucks but not many.
If you want a set of late model wheels off a 2500hd I have a set just like what Ace in the Hole has on his truck. Center caps and all. Came off my 04 Has anyone put a set of Mickey Thompson Classic's on one of these... they might not look to outta place.

Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?
mr bowtie....this is what you are looking for...I'm still waiting for tires for them. They are 1.5" wider than the widest stock wheel but only a "purist" would know the difference. Powder coated in Argent Silver.

Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?
Hey 70, if you don't mind my asking, where did you get the lugnuts for those wheels. I don't think stock ones fit the thread on the older trucks.

Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?
this is my grandpa's 68 that got handed down to me. I installed 05 2500hd wheels on it a few weeks back. I think it looks good.

Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?
The 1 tons with drum brakes,70 and earlier,had 1/2" studs.I guess 3/4 tons did,too?the rear could be a 71/72.
Who makes those wheels?I don`t think I`ve seen them.

Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?
These are Raceline and I don't remember what the back spacing is but the fit in the stock position and don't rub or stick out. The tires are 265x75x16.

Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?
Had to get some special thin lug nuts and a special socket for removal but hey I figure it'd deter more thieves!
