9.75 x 16.5 8-lug Steel Wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

stllookn · 10-15-2008, 11:27 PM

Very nice matching set that still have the Kelsey Hayes tags on them. Two have surface rust but the bead surface is perfect. I will sand blast and paint the surface rust. I have three sets and only two trucks...big problem! $150 plus shipping ($84 from Seattle to New London, CT..LOL).

Yes, you can still get 33 x 12.5 x 16.5 BF Goodrich All Terrain Radials for these for only $179/each.

Last picture is what they look like when they are powder coated Argent Silver.

Castiron9 · 10-15-2008, 11:52 PM

Hey Mike how about you use the third set as Wall Art...........

**PICKMUP** · 10-16-2008, 12:47 AM

WOW! Those are big...and cool.

**Ridgeback** · 10-16-2008, 12:47 AM

Will the rims take dog dish hubcaps? Thanks.

stllookn · 10-16-2008, 02:07 AM

Yes on the dog dish but I am not sure what style since they have the internal nubs. I will measure them since I was wondering that myself.

castiron9...use REALLLLLLY, REALLLLLLLY big hangers!!!!!!!!! They would look awesome on that Longhorn of yours painted metallic green with some '48 Chevy caps!

Castiron9 · 10-16-2008, 12:40 PM

How do those look with the actual tires on them???

stllookn · 10-16-2008, 11:56 PM

Castiron, Here what the 33x12.5x16.5 looks like on an alloy wheel and on a 8.5 inch wide wheel. If you are curious/serious I will have one of my new tires and wheels assembled...I have been looking for an excuse anyway...just can't decide if I am going to go white letters out (old school) or white letters in for a cleaner/less busy look.

Longhorn Man · 10-17-2008, 12:11 AM

and to think... I threw 3 of these away a few years ago. No one had ANY interest in them, and I am too cheap to drop 2 bills on a single tire.

stllookn · 10-17-2008, 09:26 AM

I know what you mean...big tires are expensive. I found one in a wrecking yard BRAND NEW for only $12!!!!! Funny thing was that only provoked me to spend 2 hours looking for another one!

Castiron9 · 10-18-2008, 08:16 PM

Mike those would look nice on the Longhorn,and I was tempted for about 5 seconds,but I am first going to try and get a good running 350 in the flatbed.I want to get it running.That old tired B.B. needs to come out..Take care ..nice truck,well have to get together soon.It's been a while...............

79 k25 · 12-29-2008, 04:37 PM

Hello! I have a set of these 16.5 x 9.75 rims with outer bumps for the dog dish hubcaps. Can anyone tell me if they will work okay on a 79 K25? Also, does anyone have a set of the caps with 2 that have the front hub holes in them?

Thank you!

jeremy zander · 12-29-2008, 08:29 PM

I will take these if still available..!!.shipping to 55352(MN).PM me payment request please..!!.THANKS..JZ

70rs/ss · 12-30-2008, 07:14 PM

I'd love to have them, i just got hooked on the military 37's and these would give me the chance to do the flat black look on my 07 Dodge. LMK if Jeremy passes??

DieselEater · 12-30-2008, 07:20 PM

SUUUUUURE.......Now you find a set.....LOL...
