TonyM Posted September 28, 2021 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 My truck currently has 205/75 R14; I’m going to install 16x8 wheels and wasn’t sure what tires I need to put on (especially since I plan on dropping my truck 3 inches). I thought I read someone on here that was doing something similar and he was going to use 225/55 R16. I’m afraid of buying tires that will rub…. I’m trying to achieve a low pro look but wanted as much meat as possible for a smooth drive… Quote Link to comment

d.p Posted September 28, 2021 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 195/55/16 don’t listen to what anyone else says. I run 15x8 195/55/15 and it’s a little stretch and looks great IMHO. 5 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 (edited) My 66 will be running 205/60/16 on a 7" wide rim. Myself I do not care for the stetched look it reminds me of the low riders with the 13" wheels with excessive stretched tires. It is unfortunate but here in Phoenix we see several a year on the side of the road with one of the 13" wheels broke off and the driver trying to figure out how to get a jack under it.
