Sure is. I have many pairs of mostly boots. Like tires, for different terrain and conditions. I always love when I first put something different on a truck.

I bought the GMC with stock 16.5 x 6.75 wheels and 9.50Rs. Then it got 16.5 x 9.75s with 33/12.50s off another truck. I wanted to keep those, so when I was trying to sell it I swapped the tires onto some 8.75 Hurricanes I had. I put a 4" lift on and installed 9.75 slots with 35/12.50s, but one blew out in short order. So I put the 16 x 7 Accurides with 255/85s on that came off my Suburban I had painted charcoal and put the originals back on the 'Burb. Then, for the first time since I bought the truck in '01 it got it's first set of new shoes, 16 x 8 Wheel Vintiques with 285/75s

My '95 Suburban has had some shoe changes, too. It came with stock wheels and 245/75 mud tires. I put 7" Accurides with 255/85s on. Next tires were 285/75s. Then those wore out and one got a flat so I stole the 8" Wheel Vintiques and 285/75s off the '72. They rubbed really bad, like anytime I cut the wheels hard, so I put 2 of the 285/75s on Accurides back on the front. I just recently finally bought new 285/75s and decided to paint the Accurides white. No more rubbing. I'm happy with that. I really wanted 255/85s again but those cost more than I wanted to spend on the ole gal
