I have a 51 all original and doing a 52 now. I want to go with bigger wider tires and rims on this truck. I have seen many good looking trucks here with modern tires. Have any of you tried 16 inch on the rear and 15 inch on the front? I was thinking of trying 255/70/15 front and 255/70/16 on rear. Hot Rodders....  By all means, have at it.  I prefer to keep the same wheel diameters but use different wheel widths and different diameter tires. For instance I have 15" x 7" front and 15" x 8-1/2" wheels. Rear tires are 33x12.5x15; fronts are 235-75-R15. Rubber rake vs wheel rake. My truck is about 15 years newer than yours.. but the concept is universal. http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/...0and%20Wheels%20June%202009/100_8253.jpg http://i645.photobucket.com/albums/...Status%20Photos/GEDC0535_zpsc951c34d.jpgYes, I also do big and little rubber, but there is no issue with running big and little wheels instead (or in addition), it's just a personal preference and makes no difference in driveability. | | |
