rim help please!!
ok guys I have been thinking of buying Wheel Vintiques 17 x8 6 lug rims for my truck! I have my truck tubbed enough to fit a 15 x 12 rim with 29x15x15 tire that I want under the rear of the truck! Wheel Vintiques makes a 15 x 12 rim, so the question for you guys is: will a 15x12 rear tire look funny with a 17 inch tire up front?? any and all input is welcome!!

Re: rim help please!!
I am by no means a "wheel expert" but it seems to me that would look awfully out of proportion. Do they make that wheel in a 17x12? That would balance the look out for sure. Just my .02

Re: rim help please!!
Here's a thread with some pics like you're wanting. The look could be pulled off, but it can be easily missed. I like it on fbodies but don't know about this style pickup.

Re: rim help please!!
Imo I wouldn't want smaller wheel in rear. I would try and find at least a 17x10 for rear if 17x12 isn't available. If running 15" in the rear run them in the front also.
