Thinking of going with steelies and dog dish caps. Cant decide on a color, and what style/size of tire. Post up pics and spec if you can. Thanks, Jared

**grumpy** · 03-05-2013, 12:52 AM

Umm...Ive had a few with steelies and poverty caps....

**grumpy** · 03-05-2013, 12:57 AM

Thats a few I had. the one with primer isnt the same truck as the baby blue one.
I even run steelies and caps on my daily...

1963c-10 · 03-05-2013, 09:17 AM

This pic is at least a year old, but heres my factory steelies and factory dog dish caps. The caps are hard to find, but they are out there. Tires are 235/75R15

BRASSHEAD · 03-05-2013, 11:10 AM

Here is mine, they are wheel vintiques series 12 with 52 chevy caps from the same company

16" X 9 3/4". Clip style original 1962 wheel I widened. NOS chrome caps found in Carlisle in 1987. Will never go out of style!

Aerotruk63...i never get tired of seeing your truck. One of the best examples of a 63 ive seen

**aerotruk63** · 03-05-2013, 04:55 PM

My trucks kinda like that religious lady with the over make-uped face that was on TV with her husband that got busted with the younger chick. She said something like keeping an old barn painted pretty.
1963c-10 I'd rather something I could drive everyday like I used to have.

Excellent work. I've passed by a million of those caps at the swap metets because I didn't have the vision to see them stripped clean of that ugly paint they have.

J.Cagle · 03-22-2013, 10:24 AM

Thinking about getting some kind of white letter tire for my truck. Its light green, and I plan to paint the wheels black and have chrome hubcaps. Think it'd look ok?
