if we are gonna use the terms, lets use them right

Donk: 71-76 caprice or impala

Box chevy: 77-92 caprice

Bubble Chevy: 93-96 impala or caprice

Newman, those wheels above look good, classy but nice. Dont do nothing over the top.

you could run down to west herr kustom korner they have a huge selection of rims. ask to speak with jack. 646-0173 tell him alex sent you. I worked there as a parts manager so I know what they can do for you. most of them may not be your style but they do have a lot of pictures to go through.

honestly save some time when you go there and just look at the posters on the wall above the window in the show room. They are the same rims in the books the books just have bigger pictures.

22’s are no longer what many would consider “big rims” anymore. 26’s and higher are “big”, 22’s are pretty average now in the truck world.

also with kustom korner. if you think you like something they can get it next day and you can look at it and if you don’t like they can send it back no problem.

newman I’m really surprised you didn’t get a donk. i really pictured you getting one just to be an asshole

also; what do 24’s look like on there? i like the wheel choice, but go big or go home

seriously, we put 22’s on a navigator for a customer like 4 years ago and they looked small

I really didn’t like them rims on the truck in the picture. I think the tires may have been to little, but they didn’t flow at all.
