  • 1937 Chevy Corvette truck in failing light

    Went for a cruise last night, had a super quick semi-spontaneous photoshoot as it got dark... IPhone doesn’t pick up light too well, the real camera was home...

    Looks killer. Not feeling the wheels, they don't match the look of the truck... but that's just my opinion. Great machine nonetheless.

      It's true they're not old skool, but the whole point of the truck isn't to be old skool, its an interpretation of new meets old...
      The wheels have to do some things as well... They have to fit over 13inch discs in front, and the rear is a 18x9.5+56, and it barely fits in the fender as it is... now its a finger's width from the fender, with the camber... Next truck will get the rear narrowed as well for less offset, and better wheel choices...

      Honestly... I didn't like them either at first, but they have grown on me. Now I think they look killer, especially when their freshly polished...

          Their retarded lightweight... LOL

          When I build another corvette truck, I have an idea for wheels... Have Rotiform or somebody make a set of 19" and 20" 1963 Corvette wheels... With knockoffs and everything, just bigger and with small lips.. And really wide, with low offsets...

            The view from the drivers seat is badass.

            Broken record- not a fan of the wheels.

            Nevertheless, it's rad.

                There was a random episode of Fast and Loud where they had a 18" set of rally's made up for an old Camaro. Of course they didn't get into any details but the shit looked killer.
                Love the truck btw, big thumbs up from me

                  Thanks! Rally's don't do anything for me... At all...

                  Hidden hardware+lips+concave like these...


                  I pirated those pics from here...

                  But picture the attached made as 3 piece with more concavity and real lips... Like the Vossens

                    I actually don't really mind the wheels. Especially in the first shot.

                    I like em dropped.
