Re: Tire question

hey bud go with the 275 in the rear but put 255 in the front a little but thinner tires in the front compared to the back looks good!

Re: Tire question

Depends on back spacing. I have a 2.5" front drop and 4" rear drop with springs on my 72 stepside. I am running oem 15x8 rally wheels (i believe bs is 4.5") with 275 60 15 all around with no issues anywhere, even on front at full lock. I danpost photos if interested.
