New home for dog bowls.

[Rusty Everitt]

Well I did'nt want to spend 500 bucks for some new wheels because I already had some ralley's, 15x7 fronts(235-70's) and 15x8(275-60's) rears with new BFG tires. So this is what I came up with. What do you think, good or bad

Looks good Rusty! Glad to see you are getting that camera figured out.

 

[Rusty Everitt]

Thanks Brian, that camera has me goofed up every time I get near it. I think we need another session.

tires and wheels

Those rear tires look awesome. I am guessing those rear wheels have a 4 inch backspace. I am ordering some new wheels and now I know what tire and wheel size will fit. Do you have a straight on rear shot?

 

[Phil Reed]

Looks GREAT Rusty!!!!

Oh by the way..............nice tennie-runners too!!!!!!!!!! Size 10s?????

 

[Rusty Everitt]

Thanks guys for the kind words. I'm a little torn between this latest look and the rally's with trim rings. Oh well, anything's undoable, I'll just have to wait and see.

MRHP,
You are correct, 4" backspace, and there's not much room left back there. Sorry but I don't
have a straight on rear shot. I'll see if I can get one tomorror. You might be able to get an idea from my pic in "The Test Track" section.
Phil,
Target specials (cheap)........9-1/2's

Looks good Rusty. Did your ralley rims have the outside nubs for those dog dish hubcaps? I have a set of ralley rims with the inside nubs and would like to find some way to attach some OEM dog dish caps. Mac

 

[Rusty Everitt]

Mac,
My ralley's have the inside nubs.

Thats creative Rusty. I like it. That is a beautiful car.

Mac,
My ralley's have the inside nubs.

Rusty, those 10" oem hub caps require the outside nubs to fit on the rim. Id really like to see how you secured them. I have a set of 14" ralleys that I want to do the same thing. Thanks Mac

$500 for new wheels? No no no.....summit racing series 62 steel wheels from Wheel Vintiques. About $70 a pop.

 

[droptop62]

I am not sure about the dogs on the rallys. Kind of reminds me of the Mopar cop wheels with the small caps. Hmmmmm........Jury's out on this one for me.
.

I do like your car though!

Mac,
Here's a rough sketch of how I mounted the dog bowls without any nubs. It's a bit primitive but it works. If anything is unclear just ask and I'll try to explain.
