Often it is because it is a popular style, made of cast aluminum, and they are on every other truck at a show...

Chrome reverse and babie moons ... those were the days !

**Boog** · 01-25-2018, 10:02 PM

Hell yeah! My first custom wheels were chrome reverse and baby moons with red line Goodyears. I think chrome plating was much better in those days too.

Any other Bonspeed wheels?

Here is a better pic if the Bonspeed billets I had on my 67. They were 20x10 all around and I had to run a 1.5" spacer in the rear because of the shorter 67 rear axle. I hate coming up..... short

Please pardon me for being a noob - but after reading this thread I haven't been able to figure out what size wheels and tires will fit and function on my stock height '67.

Your guidance is much appreciated...

Thank You! Up front i have 2.5 drop spindles and 2" shorter springs, In back i have 5" drop springs and 1" lowering block with 2% pinion adjustment shims. along with full length panard bar and shock relocation kit i also cut the rubber stops some as to not hit and so far it seems fine. but future will call for C notch probably

Very sexy rims. so good looking I'm looking for more too bad I can only have the five of them on my truck at any one time, but there's room in the bed for more

88gtstreetrod · 05-02-2018, 09:30 PM

Thanks Duane for the feedback. It's a fleet side and and everything is stock except of the lowering. From what I can tell, a 20x9 with 5.5 backspacing and a 8.5 width in the front should work. I will check out the site. Thank you.

JRracing · 05-03-2018, 10:22 PM

I have some wheels being made right now at a place in cali, Pro wheels is the company I think. These will be either a big hit or a big flop. 22x10 5.5 bs/20x8.5 4.75 bs.
They are going on a 68 sbss. We have been poking at for over 10 years. Its a frame off build.

We should have the wheels in 3 weeks. I will post them once they are mounted up.

JRracing · 05-29-2018, 08:17 PM

Thank you. I finally got photobucket to work.

JRracing · 05-29-2018, 08:36 PM

These were just put on this week. So adjustments on the way. Lowering the rear 2". Also considering cutting this rearend 1" off each side and doing disc brakes and a posi unit.

We are rushing to finish this up for the HotRod power tour which starts next Saturday in Bowling green KY.

I love those wheels. Very sharp fleet side.
Are those billet specialty?

Danyo492 · 05-31-2018, 02:29 PM

They make an awesome wheel. Beautiful truck! Good to see a fellow Georgian on here, I'm out in Decatur!

Is your truck bagged or static dropped/what drop?
