Features torque thrust big and littles - lets see 'em

Boy plumpcars nailed it on that one ! !

 

15x4.5 and 16x11

 

... just the term "natural finish" nails if for me. I think American had the receipe down right when it came to that yellow/gray hue of rims right out of the box and as they aged they just got better ... pure beauty.

 

Right Flat-N-Low! That's the key detail that makes it a killer combo.The line width whether it be red,white,blue or gold! Coker currently calls out theirs as 3/8". I remember 1/2" was all you could get from them the last time I was looking. 1/2" looks plain ****y.Back then(6 or 7 years ago) when I called there to ask about blue lines,the guy there had no idea what I was talking about. I said,"what do you mean you've never heard of blue lines"??? Oh gee,now they carry them.....
That said,if your cutting your own...make them minimum 3/8"...I'm just saying....

 

Polished rims and matte spokes add a touch of cl*** to my 33 Imperial. 15X6 (205/70) and 15X8 (235/75)

 

Front 6x14 Rear 7x15.....both swap meet clones. Rear tires are 31-10.5R15's

 

oh damn i need them.

 

Makin the Avatar bigger. 15 in the rear 14 front. Not sure of widths. Had Halibrand Sprints on the last c dan but like these even more.

 

great photos guys. does any one have an accurate rear tire size and backspacing for a 56 chevy 2 door 150 wagon? i was leaning towards cragar ss or ansen slots. but this thread changed my mind.

 

14-6's (185-75-14's) & 15-8.5's...(235-70-15's)

 

Plumpcars Sedan is my new screensaver.

 

The old red wgon with 285s on the back. I would love to find this car and get it back

 

Any more ?

 

This is a definite 'Big and Little'. Some of you are just posting 5 spokes. Git it right.

 

Holy ****!!!! That red 5 window could not possibly get more perfect!!! I'm in love!!

 

Pretty sure that AR TT are thee most copied wheel, but every manufacture made a slight change. So far in this thread They are all TT styled 5 spokes except for the set of bear paws making a cameo.
Some are originally manufactured in the 60s and some aren't. Some are AR and some aren't.
But they are all cool.

Have a beer and enjoy the pics

 

Shakey's already done that!

 

Liked them so much I put a set of 15x7 on the '57 big window with 235/70R15 and 205/70R15 tires. Then traded it for the '66 that I think has 15x8.5 and 15x7 (correct me if I'm wrong Ron) with 275/60R15 and 205/70R15.

SPark

 

Oh man........that wagon is so freakin' cool!!

Love the hidden headlights (super rare), the color, and the stance. You guys from Dayton sure know how to make stuff look *****in'.

Hands down, this is the coolest thread on the HAMB right now!

 

That red wagon is freakin awesome!! I have to agree with Flat N Low, this is the coolest thread on the HAMB!

 

Mmmmmm tasty!!!

 

The look that fried my brain..........

 

I can see why! It would have been hard to let that one go ( FS sign)
Super clean lines on that wagon.

 

Bump

 

Came across this bad*** Nomad today....deserved to be here.

 

Some really cool looks, but a few posters just don't get the concept of "big and littles"...

 

my model a, they are old ET's

 

MINE

 

That looks great what are the specs on the wheels and tires?
