Re: 8 lug slot mags

I like the aluminum slots. 16.5 when aired down for real wheeling can pop the bead too easy (I was told on the trail) So I opted for the 16" that has the inner bead that the 16.5" doesn't have. 16" tires are easier to find as well. 16" with any real width aluminum are hard to find though. Someone should bring back the slots in 16"x9" with a nice deep dish sort of look. One thing always seems to be missing either way is nice center caps that still allow you to use your 4x4 hubs.

Re: 8 lug slot mags

I really like those! Cone style lug nuts? Does the center fit snug on Chevy axles?

Here is my 1978 3/4 with 16.5 slotted mags. I love the looks but tires are really hard to find. I would like larger tires.

Ive read through this thread several times and Im missing where you purchased these mags.

I have cleszkie's old 16.5 mags on my truck with Swampers and I love the look. I have a buddy that wants mags, but not 16.5's. Can you tell me where these 17x10's came from so I can let him know...Thanks!
