Tire sizes

Post by bigguns1961 »

Currently running P265/50R15's, wondering how much more of a narrow tire I can run on the same rim's (215, 225, etc.) Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I used to run 235/75R15s. Now I run 215/70R15. I think that is very close to the size tire that the truck came with from the factory.

Ya know, I'm not sure. Never had them off the truck. I just know that the back tires are 295 mm, approx. 11.6 in. The front are 265 mm, approx. 10.4 in. Guess I'll have to go to the tire shop to find out. Thanks guys!
