Lets see some pics of your trucks with different size tires on the rallys:)

Next year im converting my truck to 5 lug and want to see some trucks with different size tires to see what i can get away with, im leaning towards bigger in the back and smaller in the front. Lets see some pics of what you guys are using on the old rallys. If you could post the tire size, height, and how they ride too that would be great. Heres a pick of my truck with the 8 lug. Does anybody know around the height of these, my trucks in storage right now and cant check it.
Thanks

Not rallies, but here's mine with 15x8 wheels, 275/60/15 rear, 255/60/15 front T/A Radials and a 3.5/5 drop.



Are you wanting to run 15x8's on all corners, or stagger? (15x8, 15x7 or 6.5)

Here's some I have on my pc. I know all of these have 15x8, 15x6.5 combos. The first two have 285/70/15's rear and I beleive 215/75/15's up front. I don't exactly remember the tire sizes on the stepper.

I love the look of this one (not mine Krue's) He had 33x 12.50s on 8" ralleys, and yes it's a 2wd truck.

Re: Lets see some pics of your trucks with different size tires on the rallys:)

I'm running 255/70/15's on 6 lug 15 x 8 rallys on my stock height 70. They ride and handle great. I have run staggered sets in the past and personally like having them all the same size. That way you can rotate them often. I don't know if stock height on 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton are the same, but the bottom of my front fender opening to the ground measures 33 1/4'" The measurement for the rear (measured the same way as front) is 33 1/2". Hope this helps.
