67' k20 tire size dilemma
 
Getting ready for new tires on the k20. Wondering if any one has pics or suggestions for a tire size that will fit with no lift.

I'm running 33 / 12.5R15's with no problem on a stock height 72 K10. Plenty of room for a bigger tire

Thanks guys. I'm new to this forum thing and am really appreciating the fast feed back. I am considering a lift kit now to clear a little bigger tire. But if I don't thanks for the help.

These are 32x11.5 R15 BF Goodrich K02's I'm going to run on my 67 K10 this year, the rims stick out a bit affording me some clearance on the inside. I haven't had them on the road yet but they look to clear much better than my old wheels. The K10 has no lift on it.

I had these on before, theyre 265/75 R16's and they would rub on my pitman arm at full right lock. I believe this summit link is what the K10 had on it, the previous owner installed them so I'm not 100% sure on that. The have a 5 inch back spacing while the mags above are only 3 to 4 inch buying me some room to run wider tires.
