16" or 17" Wheels
« on: July 12, 2023, 09:27:02 PM »
Anybody run these to avoid clearance issues with drop spindles ?

Or just because you like them?

Wondering about tire availability while trying to stay with the old school look.
'73 Chevy C10, 350, TH350, was a long Fleetside, now she's a short Stepper that's under construction (been in the Family since 1972).

Would rather push a CHEVY than drive a Furd

I agree, the smaller the better.

I'm still hoping that the 15" will work but time will tell.
