Thanks to a very generous swap from Dusty 66, I finally got this long term goal moving forward again. Thanks Dusty!
I've had these old pizza cutters languishing on the swb for 14 years now. I say languishing because MTs were meant to be used, and the odds of them ever seeing dirt on the swb were about the same as the rig getting EFI!;p BUT, I needed a set of clean stock rims and tires to put on the swb before I could permanently relocate these to the lwb.
Dusty had blasted and powdercoated a set of riveted rims for his 66, but decided to upgrade to discs and wanted non-riveted rims. I had an extra set that I didn't need. So we traded, and I bought some ATs for the swb.
They don't look rough and tough like the 35s, but they sure do steer good!

I didn't have to do any color matching on the rims because all 4 are still in their original paint from the factory! Kind of a shame on a rig that's gonna get run pretty hard. I would consider swapping them with a powdercoated set from someone doing a resto that wants genuine stock paint.
Right now I like the grey so much I don't think I'm gonna even try hubcaps.
