Hey guys,

Always hate to resurrect a really old thread but I couldn't resist as I'm currently in the market for new rims and tires.

Please post those pics of what you're running as well as specs! Also if you're lowered would be great if you could mention how much lower.

Thanks in advance

L'il Red Express 15x8 chromed slot wheels. LT235/75R15 tires. Truck lowered itself, dead springs or bad spring bushings.

Heres a few stock mopar rims the white truck using 235/70/15 the pink truck using 275/60/15

71 truck with 71 wheels.....

Gearjammer - That looks awesome! Can you provide specs? How much drop, rim specs, & tire specs please.

THANKS!!!!

Stock wheels with 235/75/15's.

Lookin' good! Thanks Commando

15x7 ..no drop..all gennie mopar. Wheels are American 200S, referred to as daisys, or Coke bottle wheels... They still make em but they are different. Google Big Willy American to see the most famous ad.,

Bump for more pics!

Stock 15" steel wheels powder coated semi-gloss black. Tires with thin whitewall.

Here are some Dodge 5 on 5.5 and 1.5 inch wide adapters. I bought these just to get the truck around. The rears are 305/50/R/20 and fronts 235/55R/20.

1967 with 22" on rear and 20" on front.

Here is another picture from the rear. 22" Boyd's on rear with 20" up front. Truck has front clip suspension from 91' dodge. I think ended up lowering 6-8" to get the rear "stuffed" and fill the front up. Ended up with a good combination and rake to it.

My lowered '68, with 15" x 7" front and rear. I, too, am no fan of the "donk" wheels...

Although, I may end up going kicking and screaming to 17" all around, just to eliminate the scrub line problem.

If that happens, these slotted wheels will likely go on my '66 Coronet 500.

I see a lot of people knocking the big wheels, but personally I think they look great on a lowered swepty! jeffmcarthur's truck looks badass!!!!!! Would love to see some more pics, you got a build thread yet?

currently running 225/75/15's. Not for long tho...

Here is pic of my 71 Ute with 225/75/15 on 15x6 Torque Thrusts up front and 30x12x15 Mickeys on 15x10 Steelies with 5.5 backspacing on the back.
