Help Picking Rims and Tires for 76 C20
Hello,
I have a 1976 C20. I currently have 16 1/2/ inch rims and 30 inch x 9.5 inch tires on it. I know it would cost more to get tires to fit on 16 1/2 inch rims, so I'm considering to switch rims. I would want some nice, classic rims (either black or chrome), but still have the big, aggressive look that a 3/4 ton Chevy has. I was debating between 16inch or 17 inch rims. Any recommendations on what types of wheels and tires would be/ look best on my truck. *I'll be moving to Flagstaff, AZ over the summer and I would have to take snow tires into consideration. Thank you for the help! https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.n...07780381_n.jpg |

I would go right to 16's or 17's, and run 265/70's.
16.5's are a thing of the past, and tires selection is to thin. |

I ran 265/70/16's on pyo rims, and loved the look it had.

I've also had you setup and changed to 16" with some decent rims.
My tires are 265/75R16, which I think are the best for looks in combination with handling on trucks like these. From: http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/...tozijbeide.jpg To: http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/...psa76f6965.jpg |

A 235/85-16 is another good option. It's extremely common so prices are reasonable. The 235 is a little bit skinnier, but the 85 aspect ratio makes it tall.

What a nice looking truck. I love this site because there are so many beautiful squares in almost showroom condition. Is that Wheatland Yellow? You don't see that color very often; very cool. I like 235/85R16's on stock wheels too. If you wanted to go bigger, like 33 x 12.50's, you would need aftermarket wheels but that would look good too.
