Re: Pics of my new 15X8 and 15X10 "Vette" rallys

I concur, one of the best looking wheels for these trucks.

Im thinking of running the same, any info on where you got the wheels and possibly more on the "stance" of the truck" ?

Well done...

Re: Pics of my new 15X8 and 15X10 "Vette" rallys

wheels are from Summit, they came out to like $220 to the door.. only took 2 days and they were on the porch... as for the stance, im not sure.. I was told it was a 4/5 drop when i bought it, but after being here and seeing alot of lowered trucks, I dont think its that low

Re: Pics of my new 15X8 and 15X10 "Vette" rallys

Do you know what size tires you are going to run? Check out John's truck: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/...ser=30534&sl=e

I really like the tire combo that he is running. I had some fat 275/60r15's on my 15x10 rims and loved how they looked b'f I went to a taller tire.

Your truck looks great! Can't wait to see those new wheels and tires!

Re: Pics of my new 15X8 and 15X10 "Vette" rallys

I'm running 15x10 rear 275/60 along with 15x8 front 275/60

I like those 315/60's

I painted the rims to match.

Sorry for the Bad pics

Re: Pics of my new 15X8 and 15X10 "Vette" rallys

just a 350, nothing special...but it sounds fast... plus I got 4:56 gears, so the 30" tall tires should work out better

Flat black with some chrome would look nice on those wheels

Re: Pics of my new 15X8 and 15X10 "Vette" rallys

My truck has 15x8's sitting on 255/60/15 and the rear is 15x10 on 275/60/15.

First with the rallyes painted black, then with the flat caps. Still need to add the trim rings.

WHOOO!!! That'll do the trick! Very nice and clean.

Im running 265/75r15's (30"s) off a 4:11 rearend and it certainly gave me a little more push on the highway. Your 350 will turn the hell out of some 315's if it runs as good as it looks, esp w/ the 4:56's out back. That's be fun between redlights...

Those wheels will look sweet, especially with your truck painted flat black. You gonna leave the wheels silver?

Re: Pics of my new 15X8 and 15X10 "Vette" rallys

I had been looking at the Cragar Super Spoke wheels but they come up on Summit's web site in 3.75 B/S. Was wondering if the tires would rub on the outboard side. I haven't had the chance to get out and drop a plumb line to measure everything out. Between work and other (wife's) projects, truck is on the back burner, for the moment.
Thanks, Paul
