Anyone know what size tires are on this awesome Ochre?
I wonder if it's a board member's? Remarkable truck. I am partial the body and color
It's dropped at least a few lower than my 4/2.5, but I think I like the tires. I'm using the same wheels less one lug. Other tire options welcome for a 4/2.5 drop, I like em a little fat It aint Ochre it's "Spanish Gold". Nice web-page. https://www.cjponyparts.com/resources/best-c10-colors

Hmm I'd say 255/60's. Maybe 245's.

I have some 235/75/R15 and they look alot like that as the tires on that Ochre C10 are not very wide but they are tall with alot of sidewall.

I have 255/60 tires on my truck, and the tires in your photo look quite a bit taller than mine to me anyway. Maybe they're 275/60 or 255/70?

Re: Anyone know what size tires are on this awesome Ochre?
'71 GMC has 275/60/15 T/A's all the way around. Can't tell if the ochre/white truck is lower than mine OR if his tires are taller.... or both. The SPID on the Blazer says OCHRE. I wasn't crazy about it when I bought it but it's grown on me too.

Re: Anyone know what size tires are on this awesome Ochre?
My guess is 255/70's. Side wall is tall so I am thinking definitely a 70 or 75 series tire depending upon the width.

Re: Anyone know what size tires are on this awesome Ochre?
I'd guess 225 or 235/70 front & 255/70 rear.
