Projects **New Team III Wheels on '64 F100 -- PHOTOS**

I recently purchased a set of Team III wheels through Eric at Riley Automotive (VAPHEAD on the HAMB).
http://www.riley-auto.com/
He is an Alliance Vendor and a dealer for Team III, among many other manufacturers.


Team III makes some really nice, high quality, and tasteful wheels.

I really can't believe how nice they are! They were packaged very well and came with valve stems and lug nuts.

Eric, thanks alot for the assistance with the parts selection and ordering these wheels!


The fronts are 15x5 w/ 215/70r15 tires and rears are 15x8 w/ 255/70r15 tires.
I may switch to a 205 or 195 front tire.

My truck is certainly a work-in-progress. The suspension needs dialed in, but the Y-block sure runs good, always fires right up, doesn't smoke or use any oil. Decent driver for now!

























That's all for now.... time to get back to work on my house!
Thanks for looking-
Malcolm

 

lookin good !

 

You've got a great eye for how a vehicle should sit.... Perfect stance...again

 

Nick,

Are those going to make it go faster???


If not, then you got some good looking wheels that will set off your truck when you're done. (Be sure to spray some anti-dog repellant on them)

Ain't it about time for a winter get together over there?

 

Aw Man that looks great. I have a friend with the same truck with polished 5 spokes. I showed him your pictures and he's kicking himself for not going with the satin finish! I've known Scott over at Team III for years and he does make some really nice wheels.

 

Good choice, has this JEEM vibe to it

 

Love it... I have always been a fan of those sharp pointed spokes. Looks like you nailed it.

 

Bitchen truck, great stance.

 

that truck looks awesome just the way it is. I think your done. The wheels make it. Now drive the piss out of it.

 

I love the wheel choice Nick!
Missed seeing you at GNRS this year! Keep up the progress on the 'ol Effie.

 

When can I come pick it up? The stance is tits! Hope my 63 sits that nice when she goes back together.

 

Man you suck. That is one kool looking truck. Wheels look killer on there too. I been wanting a lil shorty for a few years, now I really want one.

 

Looks good. I like'em.

 

that looks good, nice choice of tires size. Have you posted any info on the truck, I must have missed it...

 

That Truck is begging to be in warmer weather!
Send it out my way and I'll look after it......

 

agree 100% the wheels look great too

 

Wheels look great and stance looks great.Your truck looks like it is coming together.Keep up the great work. Stony

 

A great set of wheels can make anything look good






jus kiddin nice truck

 

nice choice

A+ for stance too

 

Excellent decision. Looks great, and I am sure they will get the job done.

 

Looks good Nick. Perfect choice. Gary

 

Stance! Tough looking wheel's Nick. Wanna caravan to the Round Up?

 

Those look grreat!! Perfect choice for that truck....

 

Ha! I've only pushed it to 65 mph.... the planned 302/T5 swap should help though!
We do need to have a get together soon. I'll try to line something up.

Funny, I've heard that somewhere before...

 

Thanks, Chaz! See you at Bonneville in August?

That's exactly what I plan to do!

Hey, Brian -- It sucked to miss the GNRS, but had obligations here. Next year for sure!

The spokes are painted and the lip is machined/polished. Don't worry, though, I only drove a few blocks to take these photos and put it back in the garage. I can't wait until this shitty weather clears up! The pot holes are REALLY bad in Omaha this year.

Also, thanks to your suggestion, I had a friend re-drill the rear axles and drums. Now the lug pattern is 4-3/4" on all four corners.

 

There some info on the truck here:

Really not sure if I'll make it down there this year... we'll see!

 

Love the 5 spokes in raw. You might coat them with wheel wax on outer edges. American used to make some, but don't know who sells it now? You got a nice ride there!

 

The wheels and stance are right on the money. The only thing I would do, is change the mirror to something 'period correct'. Other than that, run it as is.

Nice truck.

 

Way cool, perfect stance and the ET's look great. I am going to get a set for my roadster. Scott over at ET does a fantastic job on his wheels.

Nick, the stance is great!! Don't give up on the Yblock, their a pretty stout motor and are often overlooked. Run that thing soon...............when the white stuff in the background goes away.
