Just picked up a 1984 D100 regular cab 8 foot bed, 2nd owner truck. Very nice.

Stock steel wheel need to go, They have 235 75 R 15 on them.

I have a set of 15 X 8 aluminum wheel I want to use,

Need a wider tire for the 8 inch wheel, and something bigger in the back,

What are you guys running that have 2wd trucks,

Pictures to come soon.

Thank you

"275/60/15 work nice with a 15x8 wheel."
255 to 275 are good size tire for that size wheel(tread width is within 1 inch(within 1/2 inch is best) of wheel width).
I am running 295-50-15 but on 10 inch wheels.

Nice truck, Cool to see a long bed step side.

Do the front tires rub at all ?
