Wheel Picture Thread

After doing some searches I am can't find a wheel picture thread for our beloved dents. I have a set of discontinued Eagle Gamblers and I am on the fence whether I am going to use them or sell them. Show us what you are running, creative wheels are a plus. Not feeling the 24's but hey, it is your truck.

I love the slots and was planning on putting some on my '75 F-100. Found some on CL, called the guy and he was on vacation. Said, call back on "Friday", did and the ***** head sold them. So bought these Ultra's with 33X12.50-15 Wildcountry TXR's with a spare for $400 including lugnuts! Best part is that the guy pulled them off a Primo '70 Bronco! Put her on blocks so he can build a boat motor! Talk about wrong priorities!

Well here is a parts truck I got that had 3 of those Eagle Gamblers (never knew that was what they were called thanks).

Next pic is what I was going to put on it, if I kept it......it has now been parted out to some of the fellow Mo chapter FTE clan.

A old line up pic, of alum mods, old white spokes, chrome spokes and some eagle somethings??

Red now has some old "Jackmans" and 35's on it, I love slots too, but fins and aluminium spokes are in the shed for blue someday.

That truck sure looks familiar. Here's the same frame with different wheels. I love me some slots, too!
