I finally got around to changing the wheels on my '65 from off the shelf chrome 15" 8 lugs to these stock 16.5" rims, and some caps from a '72. I repainted them in the vintage style, trying to mimic what I should but can't have on my truck because the originals for a 3/4 ton are too expensive, and too restrictive to what kind of rims you can have. Lemme know what you think, I think it really ties it all together for a more original look. I've include a before pic to show the difference.
