Tire size question
Man this is addictive. I haven't even pick the truck up yet and i'm already looking at this to buy. The truck is a 71 cheyenne swb 2wd with 15x8 rally wheels with 255 70 15 tires. Can I put 275 70 15 on them without any issues is the question?

Re: Tire size question
Stock height?I have the 255 on mine and think a 275 would fit even with the 4 in lowering springs but I haven't tried a set.71 has a wider rear end though so you may not have enough from wheel lip to tire.

Re: Tire size question
Does anyone have pics of their truck with 275/60/15 or 265/70/15 on them they could post? I want the wider look however the 275/60/15 are 1 1/2" shorter and concerned it maybe to low.
