66 GMC 3/4 ton tire question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi everyone. New to the site and have some questions on my new to me 1966 GMC 3/4 ton.

The truck has the original 17.5 inch steel wheels along with 3 original tires in 17.5 x 7. I'm looking for new tires and the only size I can find are 17.5 x 8. Will these tires fit my wheels?

I'm thinking of the STA Highway treads as these seem to be a close match to the stock Firestones. The specs for these tires recommend a 6" wide wheel.

Thanks
