I have been looking for a set of 15" 6-lug steel wheels to fit my '29 Chevy. I found a fellow willing to trade a set for my original 20" wheels. While sitting on the can, looking through a Summit catalog, I saw some advertised for Chevy trucks (same bolt pattern). The chrome steelies are actually cheaper than the painted ones (tight budget here!) I have a nice set of Coker "wide whites" I plan on installing on the rims. Would this combo work with chrome wheels? I'd rather save my 20" wheels than trade them! Anybody have any pics of "wide whites" on chrome wheels?
not even in the same ball park with the type of car i know, but here's some wide whites and chrome wheels i ran for a while on my land yatch.
The ones Summit and the others sell are smoothies, not factory wheels. No big deal if that doesn't matter to you. I prefer the chrome factory wheels personally, but six lug versions are few and far between. I got lucky and found two, still looking for two more. Wheelkid (rally america) on here can make you some for a decent price if you decide you want factory chrome wheels rather than the smoothies. Quality will be better than the Summit wheels BY FAR! Anyway, here's my six lug chrome factory reversed wheels...
My FAVORITE look.....Do it! You will experience great happiness, if you do. Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Cool look. Go for it, and if you don't like the chrome, paint them. Good luck, and yes I would keep your original wheels too !
Thank you for the replies! That combo really does look great! Now I just need to talk to Mrs. Santa...
Here is something a bit closer to your application...my old*****py coupe. You get the idea, though... Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Here's mine with and without moons. Need to widen the whites which will be easy with brush and killz. I'm bi-polar so I really don't know what I want. If you wear moons around here they think you're from the border. Thinking about some spiders but I'm sure I'll change my mindless.
