I have decided to change wheels out on my 57 with stock front suspension. Really leaning towards corvette rally style wheels. Need 6 lug. Plan to lower a little but nothing too drastic and also plan on upgrading to disks in front at some point.
Any advantage going 16 over 15?
Will 8 inch wide work all around or should I go 7 wide in front.
Tire sizes?
Which center caps work with drums up front?
Told ya I had lots of questions..if anyone has pictures of these whels on a 55-57 truck, please post.
Thanks.
