1972 Chevrolet C10 Rim and Tire Suggestions

[scott72]

Hi All,

I am new to this board, but any help would be much appreciated.

I just bout a '72 C10 and am looking into some new rims.

I was suggested to get 15X8 rims, but just wondering if this is the correct way to go. I was looking at some 15X8 Crager Super Spoke Rims on Jegs because they are fairly cheap and I like the pattern.

I have 5X5 1/2 Bolt pattern, and it looks like the rear spacing on these are 3 3/4.

I might drop the truck at some point in time, but it probably will not be for awhile. I do not want it to look like a Low Rider, but more of a hot rod type look. I am pretty sure it is stock at this point.

Any help on tires would be appreciated too. I used to have a '68 Nova, but that was about 10 yrs ago, so I am just getting back into this.

I'll post pics soon.
