I am contemplating on lowering my 1964 c10 fleet side 6 inches in the rear just unsure if the 75 x 60 x 15 tire will be too big of a tire On a 15x8 6 lug steelie in rear? Anybody try it?

Looks real nice, I like how it fills up the wheel well. Thanks

275-60-15 on mine with 4-1/2 drop but I had to roll the inner fender lip as it contacted the sidewall. Wheels are 15x8 rally's.

I have them on my 66 with about 4 1/2 of drop with no issues. Wheels are 15X8 with 4" of back spacing. Lots of room to come down.
