AND, while I'm askin'... Camper special wheels...Where?

[hyperjohnny]

Why am I having such difficulty trying to find a set of W I D E steel wheels (like camper-specials) for my '70 F250 4X4??? 16's or 16.5's? Any input folks? Thanx ahead of time...

Thanx! I'm just looking to give my bone-stock F250 a bit of a more agressive stance. From the rear it kinda looks like a pumpkin on a peanut! A wider stance on a stock-looking painted wheel won't detract from it's original exterior.

I know what you mean, I like the old steel rims. I know there is another thread on here somewhere where someone posted a link for another place that sells all the parts for the rims and does mods at a great price, I've been searching for it, but I can't seem to find it...

My F250 looks good with 11.50 tires on stock 16.5 wheels. They are the camper special wheels, but it never occurred to me that they might be wider rims than the base model.

My other F250 has stock 16's on it and I just checked closer, the camper special is a bit wider looking of a rim. The 16's came off a 76 if it matters. The 16.5's from a 69 camper special.

Try Craigslist or your local junk yard. New steel spoked wheels are inexpensive and always provide a good look. This might be the long way around the block, but you could buy another truck that has the parts you want....
