Re: Rear Tires

295/50/15 tire on a 10/11" rim would be my guess

Re: Rear Tires

285/70/15 BFG's work well also. They fill up the wheel well a little more than the 295's

Re: Rear Tires

Ive got 285/70/15s on mine. be advised, this size is no longer available. I think you can get them in wide white walls actually through Coker Tire, very pricey now. A 295/65/15 would probably fit also
