Thanks man:metal:

I am digging it too! Now the question is, Do I drop the rear more? or Leave it as she sits? I am liking the rake, for the most part. But am curious how it would look 2 more inches down in the rear.

Anyone ever try a 275-70-15 on a 8 inch steelie on these truck lowered?

I want a TALL rear tire that will fit stock rear end and bed wheel wells

Very cool. BFG's are real classics...

Usually I run the stock hubcaps and trim rings like I posted earlier in this thread, but sometimes if I'm doing a "hot rod" show or just want something different, I'll use these '65 Corvette wheelcovers.

I like that size wheel in tire. I like running the same size all the way around.

Looks like a fuel door in the bed. Where is your gas tank and did you buy it or make it. Thanks Jeff

the truck is on an s10 chassis, the fuel tank is the stock s10 in the stock location.

I ordered one tire from Summit mostly to see how it looked and to make sure their stats were right, and they were. This is a 235/70 R15. The tread width is 8.2" and is about 1" less then my 245/60's that are on there now, they are also about 1 1/2" taller. I was thinking about going that route all the way around but now I think I might see how a 275/60 will look on the rear. :uhmk: I was looking around and I just didn't care for the Cooper GT's. and I wanted something different then BF Goodrich.

I had 235/70/15s on 7" front with 275/60/15 on 8" rear with my 93 C1500. Thought dimensionally the same height (28") the fronts looked taller.

I am probably just going to go the same size all around. Makes it easier to rotate. :uhmk:

I just put on 18" Nissan Titan steelies with 225-60-18's on them. I painted them black and added the beauty rings - I'm hoping to get the hubcaps installed this week, the wheels are drilled and tapped for the clips.

That is a terrific combo. Please tell us what wheels you have. Do you have drum or disc brakes?

I've always been one to favor the look of deep dish wheels and wide tires, but I'm really liking these:
(probably a lot less expensive too)

I think it looks cool! Leave it on for awhile, if you get tired of it, then take it off.
