Been needing tires for the 'Burb. Friday I picked up a screw at Lowes that took it down flat while loading up cinder block... Argh! I got a closer look at that flat and decided to pull them all and install the wheels and tires off my '72, which will be sitting till spring at least. I like the look but it's temporary. Although the same size tire (285/75-16) the 8" rims cause tires to rub. I'll get the old tires off the 7" Accurides and mount the better tires. First I want to paint those wheels argent for a closer to factory look. I had them that color originally on my old '92.
