    Tire Size

    Hi guys I’m new here and I recently inherited this K25 from my cousin who passed away 6 years ago. I have no idea where to start with it other than it has been sitting for 6 years and the tires need to be changed. I’m planning on restoring the wheels or buy aluminum brushed to match the trim...

    Stock 1976 C10 - Need Wheel/Tire size help!

    Hello! I have a 1976 C10. The ride is bone stock and I’d like to keep it that way for the most part. The only thing I really want to change is in a perfect world I could find some 15 or 16” stock looking wheels that are wider with better backspacing and allow a wider tire solely for...

    New wheels & tire

    Hey, I was wanting to spruce up my 85 c10 with some new wheels/tires to gain an inch or two before messing with the suspension, I ended up picking out some 17 x 10 wheels and 285/70/17 tires to go with, I was wondering if anyone knew how the fitment would be possibly on stock ride height.

    Thoughts on going down to 37s?

    Hey guys, new square body guy here and couldn't be happier. I picked up a 1977 k30 on trade for my old 65 C10 a few weeks back and about to hit the road with it. I needed to replace the drives side front wheel bearings. Of course, there was more than I bargained for. Anywho, the truck has 8"...

    Will this work with 35s?

    Recently came across this listing on BaT with someone running 35s: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1985-chevrolet-k10-silverado-2-2/ I know the tires are 35x12.50r15 and not sure about the wheel specs. I thought the general consensus here was that you needed a 4" lift with 35s to fit but that...

    16.5" wheel alternative

    So my newly-acquired pickup has the original 8.75x16.5 tires on the back, though it has 16 inchers on the front. I'm having a heck of a time finding low cost options for the rear. I'm looking for something to just get me by while i'm working on the rest of the truck. Basically looking for...

    Front Tire Width

    Hi all, I've lowered my 78 c10 about 3 inches front and back, and I'm looking for new wheels and tires. I want 20s on it, and I know you can put 20x10s on the back, but is that okay on the front too, or does that make sharp turns iffy? Thanks, Ryan
