Dog Dish Steelies to Rally - Love it

Thank you everyone for feedback and pics on this forum as I considered a new look for my 1970 GMC. Could not love it more. 15x8 on all four with 255/70r15.

Before and after Pics

Thanks

Whatever wheels, that's one sharp truck!

Re: Dog Dish Steelies to Rally - Love it

Love them GMC stepsides, or didn't GMC call it something else?

Regardless, beautiful truck.

Went from grandpa's cruiser to sporty hot rod. Either way is a cool truck.

Re: Dog Dish Steelies to Rally - Love it

I like them both. Dog dish caps are making a comeback. And Rallys will always be THE classic 15" wheels. I've had mine since the mid-90s when four 15x8 wheels with caps and trim rings cost me $100.

Nice truck. Nice color.

Re: Dog Dish Steelies to Rally - Love it

It looks great with the Rallyes. In your truck's case, the wheels were the only white. Maybe is the top was white the steelies would have looked better. I like it with the body color and everything else a form of silver

My 69 C10 was red with a white roof from the factory, just like now. The 15" six-lug wheels were white with full hub caps.

The first set of tires I installed just after I bought it in 89 were Sears Roadhandler 235-75x15 with narrow whitewalls. Can't remember the wheel width, but probably 6 inches???

Wish I had some photos of it back then.

Re: Dog Dish Steelies to Rally - Love it

Beautiful!
I’m partial to the ralley’s but having the dog dish look is nice to revert back to.
Nothing wrong with changing shoes from time to time.
Looks great!
