Re: everyone's opinions
Looks great, how much of a lift are you putting under it. Some BFG All Terrain's would look awesome with those wheels. I have some on my truck, they give you a great ride on and off road and the tread will last a long time.

Re: everyone's opinions
It's a very safe and classy look. I like older, more simple looks on these trucks and you have nailed it!!!

Re: everyone's opinions
Very Nice
 Blue is my favorite color choice. Excellent wheel choice. When you get tires on post some pics here. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=329699

Re: everyone's opinions
Sorry, but I don't really like the rims. They look OK, but not something I would have chosen.
Now the rest of the truck... daaaaaamn nice!!! Great transformation. Excellent color choice! Love the tint too.

Re: everyone's opinions
I really like the blue. I would go with those rims. I have always wanted a set myself.

Re: everyone's opinions
I have a 6" and 35x12.50x15's. If you hit a bump while turning it will rub the fender a bit but nothing major. I would recommend some Wrangler MT/R's but since they don't make them anymore go with some toyo mud country's. Here's a pic of the Wranglers. I've taken the shell off my truck but don't have any pics of it without it.
