Re: tires/wheels

base factory is 6 wide I think, I have 31x10.5's on ralleys (8") and am looking to change the look to the white steel 15x6 wheels with full covers and am curios how that works with the 10.5 wide tire, or a 33x9.5 tire...

Thanks, that is a great looking truck. I would love see any pics of factory 15x6 wheels with 33x9.5 tires at factory height, and how they fit...

Re: tires/wheels

According to the BF Goodrich website, the recommended wheel width for a 31x10.50R15 is 7.0" to 9.0".

According to the BF Goodrich website, the recommended wheel width for a 33x9.50R15 is 6.5" to 8.5".

The steel 6-lug wheels on the '70 GMC trailer (two-wheel drive) in my signature are 5.5" wide. The steel 6-lug wheels on the '72 Chevy 4x4 in my signature are 6.0" wide.
