Re: opinions on my new wheels

I would paint the smoothie wheels to match the faded red top color on your truck. Make the wheel color look faded as well. Make the caps white with painted details too. I think that the smoothies will fit your patina theme better.

The wheels you have now are cool but I think would suit a shiny painted truck more. MOFWIW )bone(

Re: opinions on my new wheels

I really like the look, but I prefer a little more side wall on the tires.

Re: opinions on my new wheels

I think Mark Parham nailed it with his '61 stepside. Check him out on Nitto Drivingline magazine.

Re: opinions on my new wheels

There are a few C10’s on the Coy’s Facebook page. It’s a tough choice, both look good.
