Can we get 3/4 ton custom camper wheel photos - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Looking for wheel ideas for my 72 custom camper 3/4 8 lug. I like slotted mags and oem dog dish but dog dish so hard to find. What else is there that looks good. Let's see photos !

17" Slots is the look for me.

I have both dog dish hub caps on original split rims and aluminum slots for my 70 Longhorn. I just recently found a nice set of slots with brand BF Goodrich tires on them at the flea market for 100 bucks! If you find a set of slot make sure they are either 15 or 16 inch rims. Mine are 16.5's . Tires are pretty hard too find for 16.5's. I wouldn't have bought them if they didn't have brand new tires on them.. I like how my truck looks with the original setup as well as the slots.. I'll get pics on here as soon as I can upload them to Photobucket...

**71blksuper4x4** · 07-03-2017, 10:25 AM

Yes, first set sold to my knowledge.

Id like a little more info on the 17 inch slots. I go kicking and screaming into the larger wheels, but I guess 17's arent a lot bigger than my 16.5's

Got them off Ebay. They should pop up.

CG · 07-03-2017, 11:03 PM

They make 16.5 tires in 33's if you are talking about 4x4 tires.

Steel wheels with no hubcaps. That's how you usually saw wide steel wheels run back in the day on 8-luggers. Most guys ran black, some painted body color, and there were the good old white ones. Or, if you have to have hubcaps the '76-91s are very nice hubcaps. The nly reason I run the correct ones is because I'm into as close to factory as I can. The later caps I always felt looked better. They make a nice effect when rolling and stand out nicely. All the non-correct stuff guys do on their trucks yet they pay crazy prices for correct hubcaps. On C/10s people have run rallyes from the same years. Hubcap and wheel swapping between years has always been a popular enhancement to vehicles.

Ive seen that beach pic you have posted many times, first time I ever noticed the surf board =)

I have now mounted a set of 08 hubcaps with the green wheels but have not photos on the truck yet. Here are the hubcaps I made work with new lug nuts.

Here is a thread on 8 lug wheels. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=330740
