Rally repros (maybe 8"), trim rings, 55 Bel Air caps? That's my best guess!

Yes that sounds about right......but how are the caps held on?

ol_skool_chevy · 02-20-2015, 01:38 PM

Anyone ever try a 275-70-15 on a 8 inch steelie on these truck lowered?

I want a TALL rear tire that will fit stock rear end and bed wheel wells

Very cool. BFG's are real classics...

Revoh · 02-24-2015, 02:32 PM

Usually I run the stock hubcaps and trim rings like I posted earlier in this thread, but sometimes if I'm doing a "hot rod" show or just want something different, I'll use these '65 Corvette wheelcovers.

I like that size wheel in tire. I like running the same size all the way around.

Grandpa54 · 03-12-2015, 11:03 PM

Curious as to wheel and tire size also???

shortbed70 · 05-21-2016, 10:08 PM

Well I got a deal on some 20's but they won't fit over the hub on the rear axle... Any ideas what I can do...

**Captainfab** · 05-22-2016, 12:44 AM

You'll have to pull the axles and have the hub registers machined down. But you will need to leave a little lip to hold the brake drum in place.

Yea that's what I thought the anwser was gonna b... Not doing that because I know I'll be replacing factory LSD unit because it has a broken clutch in one side...

**joedoh** · 03-13-2015, 11:09 AM

the truck is on an s10 chassis, the fuel tank is the stock s10 in the stock location.

Looks great! Got any pics from the back?

**Chevy Fleetside** · 03-20-2015, 04:02 PM

I ordered one tire from Summit mostly to see how it looked and to make sure their stats were right, and they were. This is a 235/70 R15. The tread width is 8.2" and is about 1" less then my 245/60's that are on there now, they are also about 1 1/2" taller. I was thinking about going that route all the way around but now I think I might see how a 275/60 will look on the rear.

I was looking around and I just didn't care for the Cooper GT's. and I wanted something different then BF Goodrich.

I had 235/70/15s on 7" front with 275/60/15 on 8" rear with my 93 C1500. Thought dimensionally the same height (28") the fronts looked taller.
