If you could have any wheel/tire combo what would it be?
Just curious. Looking for some good combo's for my '72 long bed.. Never done the wheel/tire thing, this is my first OWN vehicle. So looking for some nice setups.. Any input is appreciated.

A lot depends on what look you are after. Is it 2wd or 4wd? lifted or lowered?

Re: If you could have any wheel/tire combo what would it be?
Whatever it was... it wouldn't be any larger than 20's...
My personal opinion is... anything larger than 20's is just trying to overcompensate for a smaller something else... I see these vehicles at SEMA/car shows/etc... that every year that just get a bigger diameter wheel. Makes no sense to me. But then again I live in an area full of horrible roads, pot holes and the worlds worst railroad track crossings.

Thanks for the info. Is your truck 2wd or 4wd, and does it rub any?
