I finally got a set of 16” x 8” steel wheels and a set of Cooper 265/70r16 tires for my C20. I can’t get them on until the weekend

Cool. Are you gonna use caps too?

That'll look good... but as you can see from looking at my truck, I'm a little biased

C20’s need to know?!?!
Plus why not 265/75?

I’m going to use chrome lug nuts and no caps. I’m keeping thevoriginalv16.5 rimscand caps , and the original Firestone Wide Oval tires in case someone down the road ever wants them. I chose the “70” series because they’re a little shorter and have a little wider footprint.
