Wheels & Tires

These are wicked, what are they?

 

255-70-15 Goodrich on 15x8.5 Fenton Hustlers on the back and 175-14 on 14x6 American's (old ones from the 60's) on the front....

The red wheel tire combo is 5:60-15 and 8:20-15
The black (current) combo is 4:50-16 and 7:00-16

 

very nice! are those mickey thompson challengers? from late 60s? or are they repros?

 

this is a sick ass model a pick up

 

The overall diameter is 1/2" smaller than my 235/75/17 whitewalls.

I picked the spokes, as the 65 is the only Lincoln with the "grilled" front and rear lights.

Sorry for posting my ride..... but we all have to start somewhere.

Cheers Angelo

 

Hey Goozgas....is the tire in the last picture a low profile white wall? I was thinking about something like that for my truck but didn't think they made em. what size rim is that?

 

UP FRONT:Coker 5:60x15 (2 3/4" WW) on early 15 x 5 1/2 FORD truck rims. Magnum 4 " dropped axle; stock front suspension
REAR: BF Goodrrich (from Coker) 7:60x15 (3 3/8WW) on 15 x 6 rims from SOLIDS. Stock rear suspension.

 

rolling stock whore all the way, i like to change it up a bit.
i either run my g76 15 dunlap white walls on steel 50s chevy wheels with a moon cap, or i run my billets 18s and 20s on low pros.

 

Thanks for featuring the thread on the JJ Ryan. That is really neat.

Once again thanks for posting everyone.

People like Royal Shifter that take the time and effort to post all those beutifull and inspiring pics make the HAMB the great thing that it is.

Well, back to English class...

 

What is going on in this photo? What kind of wheels are these? Are the spokes separate from the rim?

 

Is this on the car in the avitar? PLEASE show us some photos with the steelies on it.

 

Sick? I dunno very, very nice I would say.

Model A? Definitely not - 32-34

Looks pretty healthy to me...

 

Not really what some on here look for either and I understand but I don't think there is anything cooler than the stock white lined wheel with dog dishes. And yeah, radials but as an everyday driver, bias plys get expensive.

 

Here's mine. Though my favorites are carriage style and wires, I'll have a set soon. But the stance is key, check out The "Big Wheel" car at Dave Crouse's place. Racing Hailibrands are a cool thing, but it is that stance that makes the car.

 

Wheels and tires are as important to our culture as beer and breasts..you see it all the time, especially in young people just starting out..they will be driving a POS, something that they should of rebuilt the engine and trans first, and they will be proudest of the expensive wheel and tire combo they just bought,probably on time..Well, these days it might be a boom boom stereo first..Call me stuck in the 60s, If I am backed in a corner to finish off a ride, I will paint it black and put on a set of vintage American torq-thrusts ands thats all I need..make a Kia look good.....

 

Me too. You got any more pictures?

Thanks,
Kurt
