Wheel suggestions Help

Looking for wheel combo ideas. Hung between 15x8 front and 15x10 on rear or 18’s front and 20’s on rear. Djm beams so 5x5.5 bolt pattern. Don’t know what color to paint if I go with 15’s and don’t know what wheels or back spacing for larger 18/20 combo. Any suggestions?

cool looking truck.i am running djms also. i have Cragar SS 15x7,s on the front with 4 inch b.s. i see that you are using femderwell hedders. what engine do you have.? for the rear wheels i am using Cragar SS 15x8,s with 4 inch b.s. the tires on the front are stock size. the rear tires are BFG Silvertown blackwalls the size is 285/70r15. i do not have the rear wheels yet. Summit is out of stock until the first part of Jan. 2018. so they sent me the rims for the front and the tires for the rear. good thing that i am not in a hurry on this truck.

It’s a 460 with c9 cylinder heads. If I go with 15’s was going to put the steel rally wheels from summit, just not sure on color! Black, silver, gray or chrome. What wheels are guys using for 18/20 combo in 5x5.5?

I recall Rocket Wheel Co. offers nice looking wheels named "Booster" in 18- or 20-inch with 5x5.5.

LMC sells them but just go to Rocket's website. LMC's shipping charges are psycho. Also find them at Summit Racing.
