I've posted my car a while ago but it's gone through quite a bit of changes since then. The rears are 6" wide with stock backspace. They are the stock smoothie center pressed in 1980s GM truck rallye hoops.

Where did you get 15x5 or where did you have them banded or re-rimmed?

@advinnie they are definitely (Firestone 560) 155 R15 on 8" wheels. the front are factory 4" that i shifted the offset out 1.5" and put (Firestone 560) 125 R15s.
the frontend is not a beam any longer I built an A-Arm IFS for it, its equal to about a 5" narrowed when layed out

Specs? Verrrrrry close to exactly what I want


Bump, anyone have any estimates at least? Laughing That car is so clean.


He's on Instagram, username is LORETO_JR Info I found was 8" rear, and he posted that he thinks the fronts are 5" or 6". Pretty sure the beam is 2".

Couple of screen shots.
