I want 600-16 WWW/ Firestones but since I run my truck everyday Im on the radials which are alot cheaper..

66coffin · 05-27-2010, 12:08 AM

both, but the guys above are right it really depends on the truck and it's style, either can look super cool or suck. i'm prolly gonna run 4"ers on my 66 long butt.
Here's a bada$$ dragger wearing wides... does not suck

6doggie3 · 05-27-2010, 08:41 PM

i like them both!

Nailz · 05-28-2010, 12:59 AM

I like mine a little wider than skinny, and a little skinnier than wide.

X2. Sometimes it gets down to what looks better with what paint, style of build, etc. I dig em both.

aboz · 05-29-2010, 06:55 AM

Neither! Raised white letters and a set of Corvette Rallies on mine. Just the red neck in me!

67chevy1series · 01-11-2011, 07:14 PM

if you are runnin hub caps of any sort then do a white line or white wall but when it looks like the whole wall of the tire is white that doesnt look right

Bennydog · 01-11-2011, 08:01 PM

Hubscrub · 01-11-2011, 09:48 PM

I don't think you can go wrong either way but I am going to run WW on mine!

REDNOSE65 · 06-01-2010, 05:01 PM

to the top...

**special-K** · 06-02-2010, 11:45 AM

I think it all depends on what direction you go with your truck.They all look good in the right place.The only thing I don`t like is full wheelcovers with blackwalls.That`s bugged me since a kid.

jason65 · 06-02-2010, 01:25 PM

Wide. 235/75R15

Hey Jason, I'm sure you've been asked this a hundred times, but what size are those rims, 15x7s or 15x8s? I really love the stance of your truck.

15x8s with 4" backspace. Imo 15x7 would be better. I bearly touch my swaybar at full turn. So I run stick on wheel weights. Thanks for the complament.

REDNOSE65 · 07-20-2010, 05:47 PM

Doing some expirementing...

What do you guys think???

MOJO1963GMC · 06-02-2010, 04:05 PM

@Cort: What size tires and wheels you running? Also what color is that beautiful truck?

jbgroby · 01-09-2011, 04:32 PM

I know one thing it's hard to find 75R15" anything, a 15" tire for a truck now takes some calling around. I just went through that with my tires last week. I did not expect that.

Thats funny. I was looking for some 235/60/15s and ended up settling on some
235/75/15s because of availability

creep · 01-10-2011, 10:10 AM

I like both. I have skinny whites, sort of. They still have the blue junk on them. I kinda like them like that. Is there any way to stain them blue permanently?
