Opinions on "New Shoes" for a '46, Please - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've got the black ones now, they're powder coated and in beautiful condition (which is why I can't stand the idea of sanding and rattle canning them...but I considered it!); and while I think they're very true to the era, I also think they're kinda boring since my truck is staying in black primer awhile.

I have a chance to get the 15x7 red/chrome Rallys w/police caps (also in excellent condition) for only $260. What do you think?

My truck has 5 lugs on 4-3/4" pattern; Jag rear end. Also complicating matters is I lost (GRRRR...) one of my one-year-only '52 caps on the drive home the other night. I plan on keeping the steelies, just not using them all the time. My longer term plan is to get Torque Thrusts with gray cast centers and polished lips
