Here is my 61 with the Yokohama's on 15 x 5 wheels. I felt they rode fine on stock suspension and shocks with only lowering blocks (2") and torsion bars slightly turned down. Prior to this I had 235 x 70 x 16's and those rode nicely too, but I used spacers for late model truck wheels.

I tried 215 x 75 x 15's but they were too short. I wanted the skinny tire factory look. Here are some tire compare pics
