Re: Lets see some 15" wheel & tire combos

all ways loved the look of the weild draglite, they are super light and keep the shine. I am going to install a fatter set of tires in the back when I install the rear tank and drop it 2". That should give me the look I want. Lots of great looking set ups on this post. Who ever thought 15's would lookm so good in the day of the 20's and up...

Re: Lets see some 15" wheel & tire combos

YA! What he said. I am a fan of 8" in the front and 10" wheels in the rear. I run 255/60 15 in the front and 275/60/15. I couldn't find any of the "new style wheels" I liked so I went with what always looks good on our trucks.

Re: Lets see some 15" wheel & tire combos

Here are the ones I have created..............15 x15 wheel blanks from Speedway, cut out centers of stock wheels, welded in & then made fake bead locks because could not find any beauty rings to fit the wheel blanks.

Re: Lets see some 15" wheel & tire combos

235/60's in front on 15x5.5's, 245/60's in the rear on 15x8's. Soon the have 8's in front also...

I really dig the look of 295/50's in the rear. I ran those on my '73.

What lowering heights did you use? Just springs or drop spindles and springs up front? What is the rear at?

The last post in this thread was 7 years ago and the post you quoted is 10 years old, so don't be surprised if no one answers your question.
