Looking for some 18" rims Got $1200 worth of tires that need rims. I would put them on either
the Caprice (5 on 5") or El Squalido (5 on 4-3/4"), doesn't matter
really. About a 8-1/2" width, give or take 1/2. About 4" backspacing
is what I gather these old A-body, B-body GM vehicles need at this
width.
Thing is, these are a cruising "survivor" ('75 Caprice convertible)
and a down & dirty rusty-*** beater ('68 El Camino) so your ghetto
/ F&F bling is not what I need (and unfortunately most of what is
out there). Im looking for more retro, classic type stuff although
the Caprice could handle wire baskets since it has factory wire
hubcaps now.
If you've got some I ought to look at or know of good places for used
rims in the east Central Florida area, let me know.
