I ordered them through Summit Racing and they special ordered them through Cragar. The front wheels are 15" x 7", 5-4.75" bolt pattern with 4.250" backspacing. The rear wheels are 15" x 8", 5-4.75" bolt pattern, and 4" backspacing. The tires are Cooper Cobra radials. 245/60/R15 up front, and 275/60/R15 in the rear.

I love those wheels. I had them on my 69 Nova way back then. They look even better on your truck.

Enjoy the sweet ride.

By the way, if you don't stop making that face you'll be considered the happiest man in town.
