Sneak peek of the new s10 wheels
Hey everyone! I'm beyond excited to share a sneak peek of the new wheels I've picked out for my S10 build! If you're into custom trucks, you know finding the perfect set of rims is a game-changer, especially when you're aiming for that awesome slammed look. I've been planning this upgrade for ages, and finally seeing these beauties in person makes all the effort worth it. Building a 1st gen slammed S10 is a passion project, and every detail matters, from the suspension setup to the very last bolt. The big question often revolves around wheel size and fitment. Many of you might be wondering about putting an S10 on 22 inch rims – and while that can create a truly head-turning stance, it often requires extensive modifications to the fenders and suspension to avoid rubbing and ensure proper clearance. For my current vision, I opted for a classic approach with a stunning silver multi-spoke wheel design. These have such a timeless appeal, and the specific 'PROGRESSIVE' center cap adds a unique touch that I absolutely love. Choosing the right tires to complement the wheels is equally crucial, especially for a lowered S10. I went with 'FUEL FIGHTER' tires, sized 215/60R15 94H M+S. While some might prefer an ultra-low profile, I found that this size offers a fantastic balance. The 15-inch diameter with a 60-series sidewall gives a slightly beefier, more old-school mini truck vibe that perfectly suits my 1st gen S10 lowered setup. The M+S (Mud + Snow) rating also means they're a practical choice for various conditions, which is great for a truck that’s driven. Getting the tire aspect ratio right is key for a slammed truck to prevent any rubbing issues during turns or over bumps, so this combination felt just right for my desired drop. Achieving that killer slammed Chevy S10 stance isn't just about bolting on new parts; it's a careful dance between suspension components like drop spindles, lowering blocks, or even a full air-ride system. Each choice impacts how the wheels sit in the fender wells and the overall ride quality. My goal has always been to create a custom look that's still drivable and enjoyable. I’ve spent countless hours researching different S10 rims, offsets, and tire options to get to this point, and I believe these new wheels are going to tie everything together perfectly. I can't wait to share the installation process and the final reveal of my truck with these new additions. What are your thoughts on wheel choices for slammed trucks? Do you prefer larger rims or a more classic diameter? Let me know your favorite setups in the comments below!
