Tire Size Questions
So my truck has no inner fenders on front. That said I have read alot on tires and these trucks but need a few answers.
I run a 15x8 pacer wheel info found here: https://www.rimsntires.com/wheelfit.jsp?wheelid=218531 Since I have no inner fenders can I safely run 275/60's on all four corners? If not what do you recommend? What is best 275/60 tire like cobra gt's but are there better? Thanks for any info

Re: Tire Size Questions
I ran 275/60 s on all four on my stepside with inner fenders no problem. Probably not as low as yours though, I think it was lowered 3inch. (8inch rims)

Re: Tire Size Questions
post pics of your truck. why no inner fenders? never drive except on nice roads with clear Sunny days? truck lowered? if lowered, why run the same size tire front/rear?

Re: Tire Size Questions
Never had inner fenders. Drive in mostly nice days (what does this have to do with tire size?) Yes its dropped 3/4 I believe. You can view build thread if you need pictures. Easier rotations dont have to own 2 different size spares....just want it that way.

Re: Tire Size Questions
Mine is not that heavily dropped. I am estimating something like a 3/4 or 3/5 drop I didnt do it, it was purchased that way. Same with inner fenders in front was just that way when I got it dont want to add them cause dont have the $$ to spray them to match fire wall or the $$ to buy them and tires.
