Got some new wheels...

[bigchevytruckdriver]

Haven't been home to take pics yet but they are american racing gambler style. Idk if they're actully those but that style. Had the same ones on my 72 back in the day. They are dirty as hell but a lil zep-alume and they'll look good as new. Sucks I stripped and painted my steel ones and then picked these up for 60 bucks. SCORE! They 8 inch wide so I am thinkin 10 inch wide gt radials or something like that will look good.

Stole this pic from someone else to give you an idea

Great wheel for a 5-lug truck, the way the holes alternate with the lugs!

Those are up there on my favorite wheels list! I cant believe you scored those for that cheap, absolutely kick ass!

Great score! They are outdated but timeless at the same time. If you decide you don't like them, you can just send them my way

Those look horrible! But because I'm such a nice guy if you will wrap them up real nice and send them to me I'll get rid of them for ya!
Actually I had a set of progressive wheels like those on mine at one time. Great deal you got there

$15 a wheel can't be much more than scrap aluminum price if that's what they are. Appear to be anyway. Those looke pretty damn sharp. Biggo difference after cleaned up. What are using to clean them???

 

[bigchevytruckdriver]

HRPC I am using zep-alume which is aluma brite (muratic acid) its very painless to use as well just spray on wait 5 minutes and wipe off. Only problem is it will seriously corrode raw steel (IE Brake drums, rotors, calipers, etc...) so dont use it while on the vehicle. The other thing is if they are polished aluminum (these were not) it will take the polish right off with the scum. I plan to have these polished before I install.

Cool. I gots a gallon of muatic acid. Some nasty stuff !!!

Those wheels will look great after polished.
