A set of 15" tires cost more than a new set of 16 or 17" rims AND tires! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Priced a new set of tires for my 72 4X yesterday and they wanted $300 each! Five years ago I paid $150 each for the same tires. It will be cheaper to buy a new set of 16" or 17" aluminum rims and tires! I really didn't want to get new rims but it's only going to get worse since 15" are becoming a thing of the past. Now I get to decide again on rims, pain in the butt! Here's what I have now, I may as well go for a new look, any suggestions?
