What size tires?
To the owners of the trucks pictured on this thread: What size/ type tires are you running on these trucks I think the look is great. not too big and not too small.

tires
Michelin LTX AT LT235/85R/16's on ochre/white 72 cheyenne. These are stock GM 8 lug 16" rims which were sand blasted and painted back the GM white again. I beleive they are 6.5 or 7" wide.

Re: stock 4x4 pics...anyone?
Great thread, I've been looking for ideas for my '67, and I want to do a stock style 4x4 look. These pics have helped a lot.

The other pic is messing around as I was taking my snow tires off the driver, if memory serves a 245/75-16. I think a 16" would fill the wheel well much better.

Re: stock 4x4 pics...anyone?
Heres my 72 Cheyenne K20. All stock but the tires and rims. Tires are 305/70/16's. I'd like to go all stock, but finding rims close that shipping won't kill me is tough. I saw earlier in this post about 8 lug Ford rims that fit our trucks. Anyone have any info on them? Bram, nice truck, what color is that? Silver, Grey,? Semper Fi brother.

Re: stock 4x4 pics...anyone?
Here is what came stock on my 1967
I've updated it some since. It no longer has the ford wanabe mirrors. Now it has stainless center caps and has been cleaned up quite a bit. It is almost completely stock, and will stay that way for as long as possible. justin

I believe they were originally 6.5x16.Later on they were 7".These trucks would have come with 7.50x16 rubber on those rims.The 16.5s were shorter(8.50s)and wider.Too small in my opinion.The metric equivelent these days to the 7.50 is the 235/85x16.If you want to keep the look,but go for more beef,255/85s look good.They`ll still fit unless front springs are tired.No pics at the time(soon),but,I`m running the same set-up as Cheyenne10 on my Highlander & 9.75x16.5 OEM-type/Factory caps/12.50x16.5 rubber on my SierraGrande,a hybrid-stock look.These trucks were available with 8.25x16.5 rims(K/20)&8x15(K/10)to fit bigger 9.50-10.50 tires.

Mine don't have stock hubcaps for its model , but i think they look pretty good . They are late 70's and early 80's model type caps . My tire size is 285/75/16 on factory , powder coated 16x6.5 . With the 4.11 gears i ahave the larger size tires are better for myself . My truck has a 4 inch suspension lift as well . Nice trucks guys !

You guys will correct me if I'm wrong here, . . . . . . But, . . . .
Didn't MANY of these trucks also come with 16.5" wheels stock. At least that is what my research has shown me. A while ago I was in the market for a nice set of original steel wheels for my 72 K20 Super, and had a hard time finding 16" wheels compared to all the factory 16.5 wheels? Darren

Not sure about the 8 hole 3/4 ton wheels but there was a 16"x 6" 6 hole wheel that was an option for the 1/2 tons.

8-lug Ford 16" wheels look even better and they will accept our dog dish hupcaps. They are wider and deeper.
75 series tires, like 265-75-16 are a wider tire, yet the same height as 235-85-16. |

Everytime I say to myself "remember it's a beater truck". You guys go and post pictures like these. Those trucks are amazing. I want my truck to look like that.
