It’s time for wheels and tires on my 78 f150 project. I know the ones I want, I just can’t identify them but I see them often. Does anyone know these wheels ? This is the exact look I want on mine.
Doosenberry is on it! I have the same on my truck. Here's what I ordered. www.4wheelparts.comPro Comp 69 Series Vintage Wheel, 16x8 with 8 on 6.5 Bolt Pattern - Polished - 1069-6882
Thankyou! I can’t wait to not have to air tires up everytime I want to drive it at this point. Would you guys say those are a 33” tire ? I don’t want to lift at all ? I would like to stay factory height.
I am guessing that 33's might be a bit tight for an all stock 1/2 ton (with no lift). Also might depend on the off set/back spacing you get on the rims.
Go with 285/75/R16. 33s will rub a little. I have a late 77 4x4 F250 and 33s were rubbing. I'm running Firestone Destination MT/2.
that looks about perfect. 285/75/r16’s it is! I don’t want any lift. This is about the perfect look for me. Now to find the wheels mentioned above in stock. First searches showed them backordered everywhere.

33x10.50's or 33x12.50's ?
I was going to stick with 33x10.5 but the 285/75/16 mentioned here is about perfect and easier to come by as well. That’ll be where I go.
I got mine ordered and delivered from Tire Rack.com. I've ordered from them multiple times. Part number 875QR6DMT2OWL or something like that. Shipped to my house it cost $1277.16 with some type of rebate. I went with these because I like white letters and them facing out. Truck rides smooth at 75 mph.
LT285/75R16 FS DEST MT2. Tire Rack has them in stock.
