Tires & Rims Reccomendations

[85AgLongBed]

Have a completly stock 1985 K10, 23K, Long Bed, with new stock tires and black powder coated mag rims from orginal owner. Do not like the look at all. Thinking of going to stock ralley wheels with chrome rings or simular chrome wheels, with grabber tires. Looking for suggestions, a little lift from rim size tires size desirable, do not want washboard ride. Again any suggestions rims size, tire spec.'s, pictures much welcomed.Will post for sale on the new stock tires on black powered rims as soon as new tires and rims mounted. Also have stock rims and center caps.

Thank you

I agree. You can't beat rally rims with beauty rings. Also I like stock white steel rims with dog dish hub caps

Literally only 23k miles? Let’s see some pics of that beauty…
How do you know they’re stock, you mean they’re 235-75-15s I presume.
Stock height and stock ish wheel offset, you could reasonably fit some 32-10.50-15 maybe 11.50 or 285-75-16. But I’d stick to 31-10.50-15 or 265-75-16 or 70-17.
Washboard ride? Not sure what you’re asking there. Tire comfort is almost exclusively a function of pressure.
Wheels? There are a lot of options. 15x8 OE rally’s is what you said you’re after. From there, the options are endless. Rally’s or white steelies with OE hubcaps, 80s style aftermarket alloy wheels pick your flavor or the plethora of aftermarket steel wheels from bullets to wagon wheels to rally style to plain.
It’s hard for us to pick out wheels you like. Be like me asking you what color tie I’d like for Christmas.

I put coil over shocks (to help level the rake) on the front of my k10 and 32's filled the gap for me. Put the same brand coil overs on the back and it didn't change the rake. In other words....it's level with no rake. They are $100 per front or rear.

Rear/86 K10

Thank you for the reply/s, the coil over shocks are a go with 32's, thank you! Car Fax and dealer, etc. confirmed miles on this K10, along with one single previous owner (GM Dealer mechanic) (We did our homework to the nth degree and documented it 100%) Truck was garaged most of it's life. Attached picture of odometer taken before truck was put into storage for this winter. Also looking for a source for discontinued GM P/N' for visor instructions (start and 4X4, see attachments) Have the orginal (blue factory floor mats, just spruced up with Chemical Guys Tire Shine, no slippery finish.
Thank you all again!
