I've researched my 59 GMC 1/2 ton and I learned that they could be ordered (in Canada ) with either 15" or 16". I'll check tire size later and post.
In the meantime I've purchased the Coker Classic radials for 16" with the 4" wide whitewall that are 31.5" tall. I'm confident that I'll have room to turn and being that being they are radials, no issues at highway speeds.
All with stock suspension.
