So I'm finally to where i have a little spare cash to put some tires on my boyd timeless 6's but i dont have the slightest idea what size tires to run, the truck is in my sig, it has 2 in drop shakles in the rear, other than that its stock height, i plan to do a 4/6 drop down the road, but ill prob wear a set of tires out before i do that..

so with just a 2 in drop shakle, what would be a good size tire to run, the wheels are 18s

note,idk if it matters but the tires that came on them are 265/60/18

i just want something that doesnt look off sized and retarded as hell or that makes the wheels look like they are 10s lol

 

I have 265/60/18 on mine. Its pretty much the stock tire size. I like them because i liked to have my wheel wells filled up.
Here is a pic on mine with a 2/4.

 

See with a stock tire the 2/4 looks clean, and you still have ease of handling. I have a 2/4 drop on 20's and I don't think I'd go lower than that. I know I could go another 2 in the back, but I don't think it's worth it.

 

that looks pretty good, i wonder what it would look like on a stockish height truck...


anyone else have any ideas or pictures?

 

up up up

 

Here is a 3/4 drop on 265/60/18s when I get home I'll post some pics with shackles only

 

thx for the pics, for future search reference to anyone else, im going with the 265/60/18 Falkens.


edit:since this is getting bumped anyways. anyone know where i could pick up some good quality lug nuts?

 

That looks really good! What wheels are those and how much do they weigh?

 

They are centerline archers 22lbs a piece with that tire combo i was at 60lbs, 285/50/18=55lbs and 255/55/18=52lbs

 

Well got the Falken Ziex S/TZ01, these things look good and ride nice, but might as well be generals when it comes to traction, they suck ***.
