I got tire problems for Coys, please help asap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Rollinsqrbdy · 01-28-2010, 10:01 PM

Well i went to Discount tire and wal-mart and they cant find a 255-40-20 and a 295-40-20 that match. They can get me a 245-40-20 and 295-40-20. I originally wanted to run the 255 but they said thats all they can get me is the 245. What do you all think i should do? Id like to get the tires ordered tomorow. Thanks for any help

how much drop is on the yellow truck?

CHEESE · 01-29-2010, 04:29 PM

The drop kit is from mcghoy's and its a 4/6 kit, with some cut out of the fron and the hangers moved up in the rear. It rides really well!
