Tire size 20 x 10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*72chevy383* · 06-24-2010, 06:15 PM

Can I use this size tire on my 71 c/10 with a 4" drop in the rear and a 2" in the front, or anyone have idea's?

I know you meant Wheel size not tire size, and yes it can be done but it depends on the backspacing of the wheels.

I think the guy told me 6 1/2 on the spacing.

Do a search in this thread, I know it was talked about recently. I will try and find it to.

Could be tight. The 20x9's I took off my truck are 5 1/2, and they were close to the inside of the wheel tubs. You'd need to test fit the combo on your truck to be 100% certain on fit.

You'll need to run a spacer with that much backspacing.
