Re: post your 67-72 4x4

I am not a real expert in matters like tire sizes etc...I did a slight suspension lift ...as mentioned before...I have 235 X16" on the truck now(as pictured)...how big can I go?? 265 or 285's??

just looking for a bigger tire to ride on the beach...and of course a bit cooler ride/look...well at least I am honest...LOL...walmart has the goodyears (ATV) in those sizes...and there is a wal mart about 25 miles from here...about 800 bucks for a set...what do you think???

I like the tread on the Walmart Goodyear Wrangler Authority tires and they have a 265/75-16 load range E tire available for $189 plus install. It is what I will be putting on my 67 when I get to that point.

It should fit your truck with the lift you have. It will be just under 32" tall. The tires on my 67 in the above pic are 32x11.50-15's for reference.
