Gary Lewis Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I know at least with four wheel drive that's true. Something about the way and TTB front end and the leaf springs intersect. Gary has a d60 in his 250. Maybe he has something to say about before and after? Big difference in turning radius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rembrant Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Truer words have never been spoken. Pull out of a parking spot thinking there is nothing but wide open space. Next thing I know I am doing a 10 point turn. And those of us with 117" wheelbase it's always wide open space!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machspeed Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 I just saw some wheels like John was asking about in another thread. Black rim, chrome centers and a beauty ring with red stripe. Damned if I know where it went though. Jim, if you find that I'd sure like to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myrl883 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Similar set-up I just came across... https://www.ebay.com/itm/233943274857 I like the factory wagon wheels with chrome center caps and red stripe beauty rings. Keep in mind if you get the wheels from your friend, those came in both 7" and 8" widths. 31x10.50-15s fit a non lifted 150 perfectly on an aftermarket wheel with a bit of positive offset, I've not seen anyone put them on factory wheels.

Though his truck is red, he does have the same wheel arch mouldings as you. Let me get a link..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machspeed Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 Similar set-up I just came across... https://www.ebay.com/itm/233943274857 Yes, it is. I would have left the whole center cap chrome, though. Think I'm just going to keep them argent. Nice truck! Appears to need minimal TLC. Thanks Corey. Jim, funny but I saw that video and it is what inspired me to consider painting the wheels black. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim, funny but I saw that video and it is what inspired me to consider painting the wheels black. Thanks! Well, the world comes full circle! I still think your idea of gloss black factory rims with the red stripe beauty rings and chrome caps would look great with chrome nuts. You could even get the red locking hub stickers so the rear match the front. Maybe you should photoshop it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
