17.5 tire options - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello just picked up 4 nice 17.5 x5.25 6 lug rims for my k10 I know there is a 17.5-8 Traxion made by STA sold thru Coker or Lucas tires. they are bias ply and give a nice original look but dam they are noisy on the pavment. Toyo makes a M608Z 215/75 17.5. I might be pushing it a bit with a 5.25 rim width and they are a commerical tire at 14 ply. Anybody know of other options or have pictures of what tire they run on the 17.5
Thanks, Scott

No other option with the 17.5 in a low ply light duty version. We need to be thankful STA exists for the hard to find sizes. They may be noisy or ruff riding, but the old school look is priceless.
