Ok I will chase you to this thread and ask again......DO YOU STILL NEED OR WANT THOSE 16.5 RIMS I HAVE? REMEMBER THEY ARE 8 ON 6 1/2 X 16.5......
Aluminium and look like center line style, no slots or spokes, just solid faced? They have some ROLLER 33x12.50's on them now, they will come with the rims, no caps or lug nuts.
I might have some spare caps and lug nuts setting around?

No but I can get you one on sat, how's that sound? Imagine a old center line rim, all alum faced dish style with a ring of rivets heads on the outer edge.
But 8 lug, 8 on 6 1/2 x 16.5.....here is a sort of like them pic, but deeper set. And have a set of 33's (rollers) on them now.
Couple hundred bucks? Or trade for some mechanical work/help on a Ford truck?

Wow lots of tire in that fender well, but looking good! I would say you need the lift off ol #88 about now? And I have an extra grill insert too.
Or maybe just a 3" body lift? Yea I know ohhhhh body lift......some people cringe at the word,and thanks for the pics.
