Red Rumbler, its a stock width 12 bolt. No tubbing needed. Im running leafs with a flip kit for now. I used a 15x10 with 5" backspace but I did have to trim the fender lips. Doesnt rub at all now.

Mickey Thompson Sportsman Pro Tires:
In the ’90s, you either ran an illegal set of slicks on your Pro Street ride or a fat set of Mickeys.

Mickey Thompson held more than 480 international racing records and was a pioneering driver, engineer, and racing promoter. In 1963, engineer Gene McManus left Goodyear and started Max Trac Tire Inc., using Mickey’s name as the DBA and paying him royalties for a new line of Mickey Thompson racing tires. The company revolutionized the tire business with innovative, low-profile rubber and created the tire that changed the street car world, the DOT-legal Sportsman Pro. This tire was epic because it was the widest street tire you could buy in 1991, and you could let the air out for that wrinkle-wall effect—something every drag race–worshipping fairground cruiser could appreciate. Pro Street lovers no longer had to settle for running sketchy, 33-inch slicks on the street, and Sportsman Pro tires had a drag compound that hooked on the strip. It was the best of both worlds.

Re: Pro Street Trucks/Cars pics!!! im in love with the fatty tires!!

I picked up the truck with the frame as a package, frame was built by Jim Meyers Racing in Oregon...Previous owner had it custom built, added the Currie 9" with strange centre, Wilwwod slotted and drilled brakes, QA1 coil overs, had the fuel cell built with twin Aeromotive pumps through 1/2" lines to the front..Super nice work.....Then he ran out of money ..I was in the right place at the right time and picked it up for less than what it cost him buy the twin Aeromotive pumps and plumb the frame...I have a 72 Cheyenne short bed I have been wanting to pro street for some time but didn't want to hack up a nice truck..I'll drop the cab on, remove the bed floor and build a custom inner bed supporting it properly but not cut up the original stuff in any way..I've added pics of the Cheyenne

Re: Pro Street Trucks/Cars pics!!! im in love with the fatty tires!!

Based on all the truck in this thread with FAT tires I figure this is the best place to ask my question. Currently, what is the best 31x18/18.5 tire for street driving??? Hoosier Pro Street, M/T Sportsman SR, or some other tire. Looking for street use not racing. I have Kumho Power Star 785 165/80-15s up front. I plan on this car being a clear weather car but I do live in Florida and it does rain here from time to time.

So I appreciate the help. Plus, There are some NICE trucks in this thread.

I have the Hoosier Prostreet Radials. They are really nice for driving but its a very hard rubber. Easy to spin. Should last a long time though
