Stock c-20/c-30 pics

Hey guys getting closer to having all my parts together for my c-10 to c-20 conversion. I love these old trucks and am looking for some pics any help would be great single or two tone stock or custom wheels I am going to be running 235/85 streets in the front and 235/85 muds in the back i think. I am in my pastures and cowpens an awful lot and when growing up we never had 4wd just 1 size bigger RVT tire on the back of a 2wd. Thats the look i think i want just interested in some other ideas

235 is a pretty skinny tire for that truck imo id want a wider than that.

Sorry for the upside down pictures... I'm from Canada.

But this my 100% stock 1975 Chevrolet C20 Camper special. That paint is called Moss Gold.

That is actually a very good color when fresh! I repainted my 75 Blazer a that was that color and I always got compliments.

That's a sharp looking truck the original siverado.
What would you run on your truck nekkid hillbilly, I have had a bunch of 2wd with mud tires on the back anything from 33 12.50-16.5 to 9-16 and a few 31-10.50 15 on some 1/2 tons, I am always open to suggestion for something that will perform and look better.

16s i would at least run a 245/75r16. 265 would be idea for me. how wide is your rim? how are you wanting the truck to look stock or dropped or kinda offroady?

Re: Stock c-20/c-30 pics

I could probably live with 265's but I am going for a pretty stock look, this is definitely going to be a work truck for pulling trailers and carrying a diesel tank for my tractor. As far as wheels I'd like to find some stock steelies although I can get a outlaw II knockoff in 16x7 pretty cheap.

Thanks for the reply

well then 245s would best for you 235s are pizza cutters and cost as much as a good 245. plus a 245 usually has a higher load rating and so does a 265.

265 for a stock look the 245 is better though.
