Re: K-10 tire size
I can't help, but would be interested to know also. I put a 3'' lift and 33x10.5 on my ex 72 and regretted it. I plan on stock tire size for the next one.

Re: K-10 tire size
There were various sizes offered in 15", 16", and 16.5" wheel diameters. 235/75-15s are the biggest narrow whitewall (like these trucks had) available and is closest to the average tire size you saw on these. The biggest 15" tires were L78s and those were the biggest whitewall. the 235/75s will work on 6-8" wheels.
Your truck should look great with the wheel covers and narrow whitewalls. For me it's blackwall/hubcaps or narrow whitewalls/wheelcovers.

Re: K-10 tire size
thanks. I ordered 235/75s with a 1" white wall.
I should see them today. I will try to post a pic when mounted and installed I am trying to restore two wheel covers now. I have the front NOS with the opening for the hub. Need to finish the back ones |
