Those look great! What year dodge and did the center caps just fit or did you have to modify them?

The dodge wheels were on the truck when I bought it 11 years ago so I'm not sure of the source. A fellow Ford Truck forum member pointed out they were dodge and sure enough you can see the chrysler logo on the wheels. No mods but I had to tap and drill the center caps to fasten them. It was more difficult to tap than I thought it would be since I only had a hand drill and the chrome was really slick.

US Indy Mag 17 x 9 (no center caps), BFG A/T 35 12.50 17. Wheels are also available in 15 x 7, 8 and 10. I think slots and turbines are the most period correct aftermarket wheel for the dentside!

Same here. I had no idea until a friend on FB told me.

That's a really nice truck you have there.

I had those wheels on my 1979.
I bought them so I could switch from 16.5" to 16" wheels so I could go taller and narrower than I could with 16.5" wheels.
