Hi ,

here`s my current project truck (1984 silverado) - right now I`m not quite sure which rims I should buy....

Here are my favorite rims:

1) 18" x 8 and 18" x 9,5 Boss 338

2) 20" x 8,5 Boss front and rear

3) 20" 8,5 Boss front and rear

which would YOU choose ?

thanks, Rob

Number 1 has my vote.

boatpuller · 02-10-2009, 04:12 PM

# 1 has my vote

thirdstreettito · 02-10-2009, 04:48 PM

Get the 338's!

silvereagle07 · 02-10-2009, 04:55 PM

I like both 1 and 2. Chrome would look really good with your paint. The gray would contrast the silver too much. JMO Nice truck!

I agree.

moneyeater · 02-10-2009, 05:09 PM

Hey Rob your truck looks very cool!
I´d vote for number 2!
Do you think you can get TÜV for wheels like that?
If so tell me how!

andrewmp6 · 02-10-2009, 08:30 PM

I like the first rim maybe the 2nd and don't like the 3rd.

1984 swb chevy · 02-10-2009, 09:11 PM

I love #1 but if you cant get them in 20's I would get #2

**N2TRUX** · 02-10-2009, 10:48 PM

I love #1 but #2 would look best.

I agree, I love #1, but I think #2 would look best on yours

79Silv4x4 · 02-11-2009, 08:20 PM

#2 would really complete the truck you have now. Personally I prefer #1 but it doesn't 'fit' your truck IMO. . . .

BTW, nice truck

blackdiesel · 02-10-2009, 11:36 PM

They all look better than what's on it, for sure. I like the first set the best. I'm an oldskool kind of guy.

2 looks the cleanest

heavychevy79 · 02-11-2009, 04:25 AM

I like #2 the best, but I think the grey on #1 would look better with your truck.

dammitmitchell · 02-11-2009, 05:03 AM

#3 matches your pinstriping the best...

rod86 · 02-11-2009, 06:30 AM

i really like number one... would suit your paintwork...

killthewabbit · 02-11-2009, 10:42 AM

I like #2, but I wish they came in staggered sizes or at least different offsets. You could probably compensate some with staggered tire sizes (like boatpuller pulled off) or spacers.

The 18s would make it look lower.

jared78 · 02-11-2009, 11:28 AM

With the paint scheme you've got going, I'd go with 2. I would stagger the tire sizes though.
