31x10.50R15 tires on a 67 2wd
 
I am thinking of running 31s on my 67 2wd stock height pickup with 15x10 rims. The rims would have about a -46mm offset. Does anybody know if this would look okay or would it be too much tire for a 2wd pickup. If anybody has this setup could you please post pics.

i cant imagine it could make it look real bad. it will look a little more utilitarian but the question is how much turning radius do you need??

I would like it to look like this truck. I think he's running 31s on 10 in wide rims but I cant tell for sure. I like the way this truck sits.

Those def arent 10" wide, my truck had 10" wide when I bought it they are huge. Those are 8" for sure maybe 6 or 7 in front

I know that 33s FILLL out the wheel wells. I don't have any with 31s on it, but on an 8" set of ralleys the trucks look great.

This was Krue's truck a couple years ago when he had the 33x12.50 on it, and yes it is a 2wd.

by the way those are not 31's or stock size tires cant remember what size tires they are but nothing has ever been done to the suspension, it is still factory (we have had it sence 72, its my dads old truck).

I have 31's on the rear of my truck and I believe they are 8" rims but I'm not sure. I'm at work now so I can post a pic when I get home. The fronts are 245/75/15's.

I'm swapping getting new tires and wheels when I do my drop though.

I have had 31x10.5x15 on 6 lug rallys for a few years with no probs on my 69 2wd. It looks good. There is a pic in my gallery.

I've also got 31 10.50 15's on my burb, but on 15x7 rims. They fit fine, and work fine. Much more than 8 inch wide rims would stick out beyond the wheel wells i imagine.
