Crazy Idea

Well I've been kickin around some ideas of performance on all aspects of my truck. I would like a performance disc brake swap for the 9" in my 1977 F100 Custom 4x2. It has a 300 I6 and 3 on the tree. I don't know the axle spline number but most likely a 28 spline. I also want performance rotors calipers and pads for front and rear. Anyhow to ym main point. I was browsin around eBay and found out the new SRT10 trucks have 5x5.5" bolt patterns on their wheels. They are available in 20s and 22s. I think they would look killer on my midnight blue metallic truck or even if i repaint it with like candy apple red metallic.

Anyone else have thoughts on the rims?

I thought about it a while back. I ended up buying new 18's from discount, but I always wondered if the Dodge wheels would work. You would have to see if they use tapered lugs or are hub-centric (and use flat lugs like newer Fords).

Good luck!
