Time to put new shoes on my 1951 3100 1/2-ton pickup. I have 15' rims.

I've looked at Coker, but I haven't got that kind of money right now.

I'm looking for tires that have a stock look and give the truck a stock stance. What size tires will have that "high-sidewall" look?

Can anyone recommend some generic brands? Affordability is key, but I would love Wide Whites if they are available too.

the only way to get a stock look and stance is to get the original size, which is only available nowadays in bias ply, the generic [poor] choice - 700R15LT is the closest thing [very] in a radial, and they work great, no WW tho

I use 235R75x15 pass. tires on all mine. You can get them in any price range you want. They look good with the whitewalls out.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
