2003 chevrolet S10 wheels/tire sizes
 

My dad has a 2003 Chevrolet s10 pickup.

When he bought it, it had the plain base model painted steel wheels on it.

He bought a set of these wheels, used... the GM/Chevy stock 15 inch aluminum wheels for the s10 pickup/blazer.

He is wondering about tire sizes.


The tire size currently with the plain steel wheels : P205/75R15.

He is wondering/trying to determine if he should go with that size or something else.

So... if any of you have these wheels on your s10 pickup/blazer, I'm interested in knowing what size tires you are running.

Thanks.

The stock tire size should be on a sticker on the driver door jamb somewhere. If it's gone then you can contact a dealer with the vin and they can tell you. I am running 205/75/15's for the winter and they fit the truck well.

I've currently got those wheels on my El Camino with LT235/75-15.
They are 7" wide and came with the 205/75-15, which are the correct size for that wheel.

Is there a name or nickname for these wheels?

Are they just the aluminum wheels for the s10 pickup/blazer?

A cousin of mine, it turns out is looking for a set as well, so I thought I'd do a little clicking around... but wasn't sure what terms to use.

Thanks for any tips.

5 swirl spokes (or slots), available on all 2wd '98-'02 S10/15. You can get them aftermarket as well.
When I was looking to replace one of mine, I posted a wanted ad on CL with a pic of the wheel. I think that they also came in a gold finish.

Their also known as twisties. Yeah I've been over to the dark side at s10forum.

Here are the tires papa went with on his(mama's) 2003 S10 with the "new to him" wheels... thanks for the information folks.

P205/75R15

Michelins of course... dad don't mess around with his tires.

He's never had a blow out with a michelin and he's had good wear on 'em over the years, so that's what he always buys.

Looks good, Your dad is a smart man. I'm a michelin man myself. I bought my first for set of Mchelins for my wifes car. Been Michelin man ever since. I got 70,000 out of those tires. They still had tread left, but they were getting hard and got slippery in the rain is the only reason I took them off.

I've had many of those little trucks. I always ran 215/70/15's and they fit very well. They are just a tad wider, but not taller, so there's no speedo error. However, those Michelins look nice and I'm sure they will serve him well.
