Old school aluminum slots,14x7 fronts and 14x11 rears
or
15x10 polished aluminum wheels with a 5x4.5 bolt pattern,( currently has 31" A/T tires on them)

Has anyone got a picture with wheels like this on a 3rd gen

What's up with the lips of the Slots? They look pretty shredded. Unless it's the tire that's causing them to look like that....:scope: :shruggy:

correct, it snowed this am when the pics were taken with the sellers Blackberry
So are the slots (14's) or the 15's with buying?

And does anyone have a pic of 14 inch slots on a 3rd gen?

I like the slots better but can't tell you one way or the other from a condition standpoint based upon the pics. Are you asking about if they are worth it based upon what the seller wants for them? I didn't see a price posted?

The slots are $75, the 15's are $200

I wanted to put 18's or 19's on the 74 and do more of a modern approach, but everything is fluid with this build (Budget) so thought 15's or 14's.

Wondered which would look better.

Also, if I dont pick 'em up, ill post the info of the seller in the for sale section later today

Sorry, I ran 14's slotted on my 73.  Even with the biggest tire I could get, still didn't look right, always seemed to small to fill the wheel wells.   :eek2:

Thats what im trying to find out, how would 14's or 15's look on my 74.
I am still leaning towards 18's or 19's when I can get then for a good price.
