Looks great. Simply amazing how just a new set of wheels and tires can change the entire look of a truck!

Total for wheels and tires were $1000. The Cragars are pretty cheap @ $57 / wheel.

Just read your PM not sure how I missed yours..thanks for that. I ordered them through Summit Racing...generally if you order by 3pm and the part is in their Nevada warehouse it will come the next day.

I don't remember if they come in larger diameters...these are my go to wheels on my cars. I like to keep it old school so 15" is good enough for me.

The white wall width is 2 3/4"

Re: New Wheels - Cragar Delux 69

Thats what I'm looking for. I want to go 15x6 in front and 15x10 for the rear with black tires. Great price on those and the 10 inch wide are only a couple bucks more.

Totally different look. I really like them both, but something about WWW just sets these trucks off right, if it's a straight cruiser. Very nice.

Re: New Wheels - Cragar Delux 69

I was wondering if the 15x8 -19 and 15x10 -44 would work? According to your set up, the rears would stick out 3" more in the rear and 1 more inch in the front without loosing any inside clearance. my truck is being slammed so do you believe there is that much room to give?

Do you remember what diameter and length the Bullet center caps are? And did you get them from Summit as well?
