Re: another tire question
spr85gmc -
The problem you will have is with the width of your Coy C5s. Since they are only 9" wide, you won't be able to go much wider than a 275 tire. A 305/40/22 tire is about 31.6" tall, but won't fit properly on a 9" wide wheel. For a tire size that's about the same height, you could try a 275/45/22 which would fit on a 9" wide wheel. That's a tall wheel that may just fit without bottoming out in the wheel well, but could be visually too overpowering. On top of that, you have to a comparable tire for the front like around 29.5" tall. Stepping down a size, you could consider a 265/40s (30.5") for the rear and 245/45s (28.6") for the front. BTW, do you have any clean pics of your Coy C5s and your truck taken at the same angle?
