Re: need help
Back axle would easily take a 295/50/15 tire that is 12" across the tread. The front would take a 245/60/15 to match the 295's height. You can put a taller tire under there, like a 255/60/15 in the front and a 275/60/15 in the back.
My 1991 truck is 3" in the front and 4" in the back and I have plenty of room with those tire combinations, all mounted on 8" rims.

Moved from "detailing" to the 88-98 area.
