Title: What tire/wheel size is this?
Post by: Joe-NC on January 22, 2014, 03:11:52 pm

Can anyone ID this wheel size & tire size for me? And does this truck look lowered?

I've got 9.5X30 R15's on my truck right now (which equals 241/79R15), on 8" stock rims. I want mine to look like this blue truck.

That looks a lot like my longbeds 15x10's with 275 60 15.

Truck is definitely lowered.  Would be random guessing on the tire size but it looks like 15's on it.

I have P275 60R 15 on my truck and like the earlier poster, I believe they could be similar in size.  As to the lowering, the truck is definitly lower in the back, because the rake is not the same as a stock height truck.  My truck is lowered 4" in back and 2.5" in front, and that leaves about 2" of tire/wheel well gap in both the front and the back.  In my opinion, It still has more rake than this truck.  Indicating the back of this truck has been lowered more than the front, but it still maybe a 2"x4" drop.  My 2 cents.  If nothing else, stop in and ask the owner.
