The rears are 15 X 8 (4” B/S) and I’m going to be running a 275/60 R15 and the fronts are factory 15 X 6’s (whatever factory backspacing is) with a 215/75 R15 tire. I had this same setup with on my ‘69 shop truck, but I’m going to play with spacers on this truck and try to widen the wheel track a little bit.

Here was that same setup on my shop truck without the spacers. I’m planning on my ‘72 lower than that truck is though.
