Re: ‘87 Chevy V20 - “Heavy Duty Stock” My Daily Build
After that first summer with the truck, some new rubber was needed. I decided to go with some 8 ply 7.50-16 STA Super Traxions. I have bias plies on all my other vehicles so I was used to the occasional flat spots and the usual manners, so I was prepared for that and the look had me hooked!
As an added bonus, I re-aligned the front end.... and BOY, what a difference. The truck was toed-in way too far before. Finally found a number of around 3/16” toe in that works for me, keeps the truck straight and minimizes tire wear.
(After about a year on the 7.50’s, I swapped them for Toyo M55’s for better performance and to save unnecessary wear and tear on the truck.)
