soft 8's make all kinds of sense.

that truck though is giving me all kinds of nasty thoughts, i have all the parts to make my 454 that low, but don't want to give up carrying capacity just yet.

+1 SBF. First thing I did when I got the f150 home was pop off the hubcaps and clean (quick 2 minute job with the hose and bleche wite) and paint the OEM steelies satin black. World of a difference.

The stock wheels on the Japanese trucks were always cool.

The factory steel and 4x4 hubcaps work for me too on old K5's.

Naw, they're all mismatched dry rotted crap tires.

I'm gonna go with some 15" stock car wheels.

I've always been a sucker for the steelies on Highway patrol cars. Sorry no pics.

Unfortunately, it looks like you will need adaptors, as the S-10 is 5x4.75, and the 5th gen Camaro is 5x4.72

Yeah, the Camaro is 5x120mm like BMWs.

Wait, that means Camaro steelies would fit on an E24.

These are ATS Cups, not steelies. But yes, they do look awesome.

Maybe an odd comparison but this is the look I want to go for with my E36 BMW... If I ever get to the "looks" stage of the project
