To me, That era truck. Needs to be the Silver Wagon wheel. The aluminum, at least those just don't belong.

Ha! Interesting you say the aluminum ones don't belong. They're actually Ford oem 82' cast aluminum wheels I pulled off an f150.

The "wagon wheel" gives it a modern look and is kinda classy cool. The one's look great too. Olde Skool. It's all about your personal preference. Either way I just hope you get some 33's on them to fill up those empty wheel wells! Lol

I think with a set of 32's under there, the aluminum ones will be awesome!
Silver spoke steels for the 235's for sure.
Just to throw a wrench in the works, I've always been partial to the old white spokes and 33's on an older Bronco.
Hope that helps.
Cheers
P.S.
Just have to say, that is a gorgeous survivor you have there. Don't go too far with the resto. (Just sayin)

Thank you! Trying to keep it close to original, but I am making a few upgrades here and there (3g alternator, hydroboost brakes, speakers...nothing too major though).
