pics of 24's on a 67-72 please - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The Big Green · 11-04-2009, 09:08 PM

Here's mine on 20in Boss 303's, 20x8.5 standard backspace. I need to get my wheels ordered in the next couples weeks so they can be on their way to me. Wheels are hard to pick out, big decision for me lol. I need to get a idea of what I want, and need help. I'm posting a few pics for reference, because I don't know how deep an offset I can go. I'd say 2 inches between my tires and my fenders, and like 3in before they hit the lower bars on my 4-link.

I'm not in VC anymore. I'm Freaks of Nature. I still hangout with them, they are all my friends in the local chapter.

*awkward*

nice truck big green, any specific pics of your valves and how you ran your lines, etc.?

The Big Green · 11-09-2009, 11:09 PM

I can take a better pic tomorrow. There may be one in my build thread. You can see two valves peeking from under my cab in the pic above. They are by my front bed frame mounts and the upper bar X-member. There's two in front of those and 4 on the other side. If there's no pics in my build thread that show them better and I didn't explain then I'll snap a couple pics at daylight. I wanted them somewhat hidden keeps everything less superfluous.

I say break out the tape measure and start measuring.
No one elses truck is going to be the same as yours. Wheels cost too much to guess on size.
Looking for a certain style is a different subject,... but offset needs to be measured per the individual truck.

The Big Green · 11-09-2009, 11:57 PM

I have an 8.5 wheel and I have 12inches to play with in the back. Whatever back offset is on these wheels I can go from there. Thing is that ever wheel I liked today that stated 24x10 didn't offer a 5x5 in them or they didn't offer both a 22 and 24 in the same wheel. In my first post I said my measurements but don't know my 20in wheel offset. They come in a mm offset so I'll have to google it. I just wanted pics so I'll know there's that wheel that I can find. There's no Boss 330's in a 22/24 for a 5x5 and I liked that wheel.

**lolife99** · 11-10-2009, 02:45 AM

Maybe this will help.
Measure your backspace,... then look at chart for offset in MM.

Say your wheel is 8.5 inches wide with a 5" backspace,... you would have a 6mm offset

The Big Green · 11-10-2009, 09:53 AM

Thanks a lot for that chart. When I search for wheels today I'll know just what I'm looking at rather than a mm offset.
