New wheels- whitewalls maybe?
UPS dropped me off some goodies at my parents house. 15x7 and 15x8 Wheel Vintique 6 lug smoothies! I think I'm going with 215/75's in front and 235/75's in the rear but I haven't decided if I want to do thin whitewalls or black. Wheels and roof will be shoreline beige, body will be medium olive poly.

Yes, I love white walls, black is boring

Re: New wheels- whitewalls maybe?
I'm planning on the same wheels but 15x10 in the rear. Just curious how do those hubcaps attach to the wheel?

Re: New wheels- whitewalls maybe?
The caps attach using a curved channel lip that matches the shape of the inner shape of the wheel if that makes sense. Thanks for the replies so far!

Re: New wheels- whitewalls maybe?
Those look great, it would help to see the truck but whitewalls or a raised white letter would look good. Do those trim rings just press in? I think they complete the look on those wheels.

Re: New wheels- whitewalls maybe?
Yes, the trim rings just snap on. I could take a couple pics of the truck but it's multicolored with no front clip right now, not much to gather an impression from!

Re: New wheels- whitewalls maybe?
Don't do it. Whitewalls are for Lincolns and Cadillacs.

Re: New wheels- whitewalls maybe?

Re: New wheels- whitewalls maybe?
Since you are not running white wheels, I'd suggest red lines or even gold line tires. Check out www.dbtires.com

Re: New wheels- whitewalls maybe?
Are you talking wide whites or thin white walls like mine?
