You can run a 10" wheel also if you use the narrow housing w/5 lug axles.

It`s been a year and a half.Haven`t seen him around.i can`t see the tires well enough to want that brand over any other.They just look like black circles around the wheel in a size I like.I`d just go find the tire you like and buy them in the sizes listed.

Re: Side pics ECE 4/6 drop and 285/70/15 rear tire

I'm here, just lurking most of the time

Those tires are BFG's in the rear and Yokahamas in the front. I have since changed the tires to a smaller size since I put the 700R4 in the truck to a 245/60 up front and a 275/60 in the rear.

Much better than the tall tire for the freeway, but they don't fill the wheelwells as much.

Got pics of the new tire setup? It's not like we've never seen a truck with that tire combo before. Just wana see it on YOUR truck.
