What's the matter Jim, don't like your xfer case binding?

BTW, that is my idea of the perfect 1/2 4x4, except it's missing dog dish hubcaps and the tires could be a little skinnier.:p

I'm running nothing as wide as JWill41, but I have 255-70R15 on all 4 corners of mine. I like being able to rotate my tires

I'm running 255/60's on 10" Cragar S/S wheels. Dang, I wish I knew how to post pictures! The tires are Firestone Indy-500's(and the whitewalls are out!). They seem like they are just a scosche too narrow for the 10" rims. But, they look ok (actually the best looking thing about the truck, right now). I'm afraid that if I go to a 50-series tire that they will stick out too far! I may eventually switch back to the 8" wheels.

I'm running 295-50-15 Kelly's on 15 x 8 Corvette style Rally's. I hope to be moving up to some 17 x 8 Eagle 211's in the very near future. Does anyone know where i can find the 17" tire that will give me more or less the same diameter as my 295-50-15's?????.........Jerry

I got 255x60r15's on mine. 8.5 inch wide rims. Terry when you say those tires are a schoche too narrow for 10 inch rims are you implying that you can't keep air in them? when i went to the wheel dealer for mine he said those tires wouldn't work on 10 them 15x10's wouldn't work

I just mounted up some 255/60 15's on 10" Center Line rims and I think it's pretty cool looking. But like Terry said, they look just a tad bit too narrow for the rims, but still looks cool.
