I think these trucks need more than an 8" wheel IMO. Especially in the back. And I love the look of a deep dish 10" wheel. Or even a 9" one and they would work on a 275/60-15 tires, but 10" wheels bulge that size a little too much.

So far these are my plans:

Front: 245/60-15 on a 15x8
Rear: 295/50-15 on a 15x10

Both tires are about 26.8" tall.

I'd like to stay around 28" tall with the tires, but there are no tires that tall that fit an 10" wheel.

Either that or I might just go 275/60-15 all around on my 8" ralleys.
