Old school wheels, need tire advice...
 
So I am in the habbit of randomly changing the wheels and tires on my tan 84 short-fleetside... It's lowered with spindles and shackles/hangers/removed leaves.

In the last two months, I've had 15x7 and 15x8 Cragars with 245/60 and 295/50 and 275/60 Radial TA's and 17x8 Eagles with 255/55 Michelin Pilots... Recently I've got the bug to do something different so I got some freebie 1970's B-Body (1977 Delta 98) steel wheels and 1969 Chevy Police-style hubcaps... The wheels are currently black, but will probably turn orange when I get the bug for something different again...

Now I can't decide what tires to run: wide whites, white ribbons, red-lines, blackwalls or raised white letters... I know I want them tall and relativley skinny, maybe a 235/75/15 or 235/70/15... Any suggestions?

Got any pics of the wheels and hubcaps ? I'm having trouble visualizing.
