Re: FINALLY!-factory GM 15x8 Steel Wheel

They are 215/75r15 on a stock 15x6 wheel. The tires are Hankook Optimos. I've had many different Hankooks on all my vehicles and they are some pretty good tires.

Re: FINALLY!-factory GM 15x8 Steel Wheel

Given all this current info, if I was looking to put narrow whites on a truck today, I'd use 225 or 235/75-15 and 7" wheels, not 8". But that's just me.

Going with either the 225 or a 235 on a 8 wide, they don't make a 7 wide steel that accepts dog dish, going to test fit each in first

Wheel Vintiques makes a 15x7 for stock caps in both 5 and 6 lug. The 6 lug seems to be in somewhat short supply right now, Summit is out, and Jess only has 3.
