Thanks, took me a while to decide on these wheels and I picked them up way before their show- Jan 2014.

20x8-255/45 Front and 20x9 275/40 Rear.

Re: Calling All Steelies - Caps and Otherwise...

15x6 fronts and some hard to find 15x7 from a 78 olds in the rear. buick caps are the best looking in my opinion.


the guy who bought the truck sold them back to me and put on vintiques

Dig these N.O.S. aftermarket wheel covers I found last summer. See any resemblance? '64 Chevy and Buick were the same cap.

Re: Calling All Steelies - Caps and Otherwise...

here are a few shots of my stock Caps. I painted the outer edge black to create the white center to appear smaller.

Where did you buy your tires? I have 17.5's and all I can find online is commercial truck radials.

I like the look of the center of the cap being black.

Off-topic, but does anybody know anything about that sun visor?
Home-made, or period aftermarket piece?
