Re: 15" Tire Size

I have a 69 Stepside C10, I put 235 75 Michelin and even put one as a spare for looks as well. I am pleased with them. Check out my Orange Truck information and see the picture posted for it. This is original factory color and the tri-pods are original as from the factory. I did put chrome wheel covers as the originals were painted and would have been difficult to restore.
