Re: 15 inch tire and wheel combos only
Guys don't forget to put a little more info in your posts if you can. That way if someone really likes the look they have all the info they need.

Drop ... or lift. What size are the rims, and what size are the tires.

Re: 15 inch tire and wheel combos only
Just brought this one home and I'm not sure of the wheel width, but the tire size is P275/60R15. I'm probably going to find either some 15x8 rallys or maybe steelies w/ caps for it.

Re: 15 inch tire and wheel combos only
There's no such thing as "COPO" only caps.These caps were found on the cheapest Novas you could buy as well as SS's,that's where my first set came from a base model 6 banger.

Re: 15 inch tire and wheel combos only
TTT A bunch of pics were lost to the photobucket fiasco. If one of them is yours could you fix it (if possible)?

Thanks!!!

No one that I have found. 15X8's can be found sometimes on here. We found ours at a military surplus.

It's basically a "get yer wallet out" situation. Been there, done that...

Nice looking ride. These are the style of white walls that really work on these trucks.

Re: 15 inch tire and wheel combos only
I was just trying to figure out tire sizes tonight and going through this thread really helped with what size I want to try to get. Thanks everyone!!!

Looks like imma see about finding some 275/60r15 tires eventually. To me it looked like those fill up the wheel well the best.

Re: 15 inch tire and wheel combos only
Has anybody ran into a problem running 15 inch factory steel wheels in the front? I just converted my truck to 5 lug disc and with a drop spindle but seem to possibly have too much backspacing..? The inside of the wheel hits the spindle where the tie rod connects.. any info would be helpful thanks.. owh and the wheels I am trying to use are from a 89 1/2 ton

Re: 15 inch tire and wheel combos only
The 88 up wheels have more back spacing than the previous wheels.
