1970 c10 rims LB
Ok so I'm going to be ordering my rims tomorrow for 1970 c10 longbed. Stock height and I plan on keeping it that way. The rims I'm thinking of ordering I just want to verify with you guys that it'll fit and work on my truck. Oh and the truck also has drums on all 4s. So my rims will be 15x8, 3.75 backspacing, 6x5.5 lug pattern.
also, what tire size recommendations? here's the link http://www.summitracing.com/parts/usw-94-5860/overview/ |

I tried searching around on here but didn't find a definitive answer.

Re: 1970 c10 rims LB
The wheels will work just fine, 15" is plenty of room for drums and 6x5.5 is the bolt pattern. For tires you can go with a 255/70R15 or 275/60R15. The 255 is a bit taller and the 275 is wider so it depends on your preference. I run the 255/70R15s on my stock height 72 with 8" wide rally wheels and like the look.

All a matter of preference, both will work. I like as wide as possible personally but there are people out there on the hunt for van rally wheels so they can go as narrow as possible. Just look at as many pics as you can here and through searching before you pull the trigger and drop any money.
