Well, my tires are getting old and I've seen alot of these trucks with fat white wall tires on them. I started to look online at Coker and denman tires but I can't figure out what size I have and also if I should get bias ply or radials.
I plan to drive the truck alot and want the radials but I'm worried they won't look correct and my steering will be harder. I want to mount the new tires on the original rims.

What year of truck? 1/2 ton? and what is the size of your tires? Are your rims one piece?

Try Diamond Black Classics too - http://www.widewhitewalltires.com/index.htm

I use radials on my daily driver 63 Nova and they provide great handling. cool Making sure the front end is in good shape helps! On older trucks, upgrading to roller front wheel bearings is also a good idea.
