I have a 61 unibody ford gona run skinny whites but I am stuck not sure what to run some Astro supremes or some cragar ss pro wheels.The truck will be on air ride and lay flat. Jake
Either one will look good. I'm thinking about supremes myself. Did you swap out your bolt patterns yet?
The front has a mm2 so it's 5 on 4.5 I was gona use adapters on the back till I get the disc on it. Rite now the front has adapters to fit the 5 on .5.5 delux wheels. Jake
I am partial to supremes myself, guess it just depends on what look you are goin for on the build, good luck man
Personally, I don't like those Cragars. They kinda look like an early magnesium wheel, but not quite. Not enough to pass for "traditional". And definitely not with skinny whitewalls. The whitewalls and Supremes will go together a lot better, assuming this truck is going to be a 60's or 70's styled custom or a lowrider.
That is where my problem is I don't want it to look to much like a low rider lol The cragars are 160 each and supremes are 150 each. Nothing wrong with a custom look though.but really like the spinners ha
You gotta run real Cragar SS wheels if you are going to run those not what you picked. OR supremes with Pinner whites. The other Cragars just don't cut it.
Ok so a lot of makers of supremes . What brand us wheel or Vintiques ? What offset / back space 3.5 or reverse How wide 7 I assume Thanks Jake
Not sure what size will fit on your truck, I've run a 14x6 standard on my Comet and my Impala. A reversed might fit your wheel well and look goood. Anyway, I get my supremes from Coys. They carry AWC's which are strong because of the gusseting on the spokes. Not sure if you can get a reversed through them though. $120 ea. http://www.coyswheel.com/awc.html
I just bought a set off TTO's for my 62 Unibody. Man was it hard to decide which way to go. I think the Supremes will look great on your truck, especially with the thin white walls. I was gonna go that way but decided to go of a more hot truck vs custom truck look. Make sure you show pics of your progress.
I have a build thread on here i hope to make some more progress soon I have most all the parts just need some time to get some work done lol. Jake
Think if I run a supreme it will look better with as much dish as I can get. Thanks for the link says 110 for a 15x7 Jake
"Traditionally" Supremes are barely one step above no wheels . They are what you got if you couldnt afford Crager SSs ... then a bit later TruSpokes. People run them now like its cool .. well it may be to some .. but back then it wasnt
Supremes were the ultimate wheel for customs in Southern California since the mid-sixties. Still are. Cragars were found on the more performance-oriented vehicles. At least that's what I personally remember. Your mileage may vary.
Cragar SS. Not Crager....maybe I am a dick, but how stupid can someone be who is into cars and cannot spell Cragar properly?
