Let's see some K5's with steelies - who's running steelies?

NTR72GMC · 09-20-2013, 12:58 AM

When it's done it will still be on steelies.

Here's my 70 K5 with the 16" split rims that were originally on my 69 K20

I've been running my slots lately, but I've been known to swap on my set of steelies at a moments notice! Boy, I can't wait to see my Blazer all one color again.

**DeadheadNM** · 09-21-2013, 09:26 PM

Nice ride's fellas! Here's a side shot of mine....

What's the lift on your K5 - 2"? Looks great...

nicosorange · 09-23-2013, 10:18 AM

Thanks. No lift, stock suspension

I'm running 16" steelies and skinny tires.

**Willowrun** · 09-25-2013, 05:41 PM

Pulled the tires and rims off of one of my CUCV's before I sold it and put them on the '72. The centers are off of a '73 K5 that had skinny steels that I replaced for rallies. The sun fading on the rims and caps seems to fit the well used theme.

I have steel wagons on mine. This is a few years ago before I started restoring it.

Finally got mine back from the powder coater and got the tires mounted. Need to finish painting the dog dish bowties, but at least a step in the right direction....

Nice. Tire size and spring lift if any?

This is a great thread! I want to run steel 15" wheels on my 72 sooo bad!

Nice K5's everybody. Here's mine and just got the 15 x 8 steelies which took me forever to find. Had em powdercoated and love the new radials. I was running bias ply pizza cutters on the 16 x 8's that were on it before. Here's a couple before and after pics. Love all the cool pics!
