    what size tires would be good for a 65 c10 going to lower it alittle nothing crazy, going to use a set of 15x8 rims all around.
     
  2. I have a set of 30x9.50x15s on my 64 C10.

    It has bone stock original springs. No rubs whatsoever, even with a load of hay. I'd wager I could go a bit lower before having any problems with this tire size.

    No rubs, even loaded like that. Like I said, I think I could go quite a bit lower before these tires would rub.

    I did 235/75 rear and 215/70 front on a 3" drop. I like it.

    I've run 8.50 x 15, L78-15, and 235/75/15 and all seemed ok.

    I ran 255/60/15's and 275/60/15's on my short bed 61 fleet side... It was super low and had a nice rake. Tires filled the wheel wells nicely
     
  9. I have 245/60/15 on mine on 8 '' rims.
