what size wheels do i have?

i bought my truck used and it already had aftermarket wheels on it. how can i figure out what size they are as far as width goes. it has 31/10.5/r15 tires on them. i would like to put some 275/60/r15 bgf radial t/a's or cooper cobra gt's on them until i can afford new wheels.

I would say 15x8. The tire size you want will be about the same width as the 31x10.50. The diameter of the new tire 275/60/15 will be two inches shorter in diameter.

how do you know you like the way the 15X10's look if you dont know what size you have now...lol. im just kidding... but yeah, those are more than likely 15X8's and look like an American Racing wheel, or maybe an Ultra wheel

Pull one of your wheels. The size is probably cast in the inside of your wheel.

That is an American Racing wheel, but I checked their site and they don't make it any more.
