My new truck...1968 c10 step side

Good morning to all. I'm new to the site and thanks for adding me. I'm from Smithtown, Long Island, NY and just bought 68 c10 from NC. Already to dive in and lower the overall stance with lowering kit and drop spindles. Does anyone have a good tire and rim combination to give it a more athletic stance.

Nice truck, I like the stock hubcaps. Some wider steel wheels that accept the cap would be my choice.

I agree, just order some 15x8" Wheel Vintiques for the rear from Summit and call it good after you lower it!

(Assuming they make them in 6-lug)

I don't believe wheel Vintiques makes a 6-lug 15x8 wheel,... Just 5-lug.
But the board classifieds usually has some factory blazer wheels that size.

I'm converting it to 5 lug so the 15x8's will work
