A friend is looking for Cragar SS wheels. What thickness are your adapters? Are your running Drum or Disk Brakes up front?

It's JMO - But, this is the best truck color and wheel combination out there, together, they're timeless and classy..
I did find your wheel specs to be an odd (to me) combination, primarily due to your choice of backspacing. Do the tires and wheels fit neatly within the confines of the outer fender lip, or wheel wells, or do they sti ck out beyond the fender.
Love the truck...

When I bought my wheels from Early Wheel Company, they were welded/assembled at the time order was placed. They offered custom offsets for a small price increase. The front wheel centers were welded with 0 offset or centered in the rim. The rear wheels had the centers welded 3/4" further to the inside of the wheels, creating a sort of old time reversed wheel. The rear wheels stick out 3/4" further to the outside than the front wheels. It was a looks/preference thing on my part. Hope this explains it better.

Fordf348, I have several vehicles with different size of tires. My spare is always the rear size(mostly height). You don't want to have different height on your differential. If you had to limp home with different front tires it should be ok, might drive a little weird. Luckily I've never had to do it. Good luck.
