#5 stock white steelies with stock caps!
But, if that's not in the cards, #3 is the best imo. Voted it!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Poll: Wheel choice

#1 I'm a sucker for nostalgic mag wheels. The turbines look pretty cool. Especially if the truck were lowered about 3" to 4".

Re: Poll: Wheel choice

I think #2 is my favorite but, the overwhelming support for #3 will make it a tough choice. I will prob go without letters on the tires..#1 is how it looks currently. Very surprised by the lack of votes for #4. Esp after the steelies thread this week. As for #5 the original caps for mine since its a 50th would be the black hubcaps. Do they even sell those? I'm not looking to spend hardly any money. The turbines are fine but I found a set of 6 lug rallys for $40. Probably go with them and hold off on rings and caps for now. I have a buddy who owns a body shop that I will have blast them and I will probably paint them myself.

Re: Poll: Wheel choice

Nice truck, I dig the color combination. If it were me, I'd keep rocking the turbines/cyclones/turbos/sunspokes or whichever brand they are in #1 and spend the money fixing the rusted quarter panels instead.

Re: Poll: Wheel choice

I got quoted $500 for replacing the rockers.

I'm spending $40 on these wheels plus paint and tires. After I sell my turbines I will prob only be spending a $100 or so. It is in desperate need of new tires anyways.

Re: Poll: Wheel choice

And the winner is...

These 4 nub 15x6s were $100 on craigslist. I sandblasted them and prime/spray bombed them with rustoleum rattle can and handle attachment.

Saving up for some white walls now.
