Please take it as it was meant, only a suggestion. Everyone has their own tastes and desires, and those are based off of what we grew up wanting and riding in. Not to mention the budgets we have to deal with.

Attached are some pictures of a truck I was interested in some time ago on Ebay. Not sure if it is period correct, but to me it looks right.

I have a 70 SWB SS 4x4 I am restoring this summer. After the 67 4x4 is finished, which is very soon. It may get this skinny tire original stance treatment......

I feel the painted rims make the truck a little more authentic than non stock looking rims. I have rallys on my 67 4x4 but the color combo is so close to yours, that I might have to seriously consider going this route.

Gotta admit, those white rims make it one clean S.O.B., and it would go good with your grill and tailgate letters. (still have not decided to do that or not)

Anyway, for what it is worth!
