295 50 15 on Rallys All Around

Found a pretty good deal on a set of rally wheels with 295 50 15 tires on all four. I'm thinking about getting them, but I don't think they'll look right on all four corners. I tried searching, but can't find a 67-72 with them on all four corners. Anybody have them, or have a picture?

1992 Called and they want thier tire and wheel combo back.

I didn't like it back then when I was mounting them as fast as we could get them in at Super Shops and I really think it would look like crap now. 295 50's on the back tucked look great just not on the front.

I got 295/50/15 in the back and 255/60/15 in the front. So theyd probably look similiar to my setup. I have 10" rims front and back

How did you get your truck that low with the 6 lug pattern? I have a '67 6 lug and what I've read so far is that you have to use drop spindles and change to disc brakes.

I had 295/50/15's mounted on 15x10 centerlines all around and I thought they looked great. 15 inch rims are still cool, as a matter of personal opinion I don't like the look of 20's on these old trucks. Not sure hoe they'd look on 8 inch rims all around but I'm betting they would look great.

You can do a disk swap with all 71-72 front end pieces and order a set of lug rotors from some of the vendors on the site. I ordered mine from CPP.

That is the look I want for my truck ! Did you get your wheels widened or did you find some 10" wheels?

Thanks
