    Taller tires for my 1976 K20

    Epilogue: I think this was an example of a hijacked thread! :) JK, all good, and thanks to all who contributed. I went with the same height, essentially, as to the old Power King 16x7.50's., by using BFG All Terrains in 235/85R16's. I was going to use 25585R16's, but I went with the 235's as I...

    Taller tires for my 1976 K20

    thank you so much for the GREAT information! Very useful and helpful. I will try to find some 16" Steel wheels which will fit my truck, accept larger tires, and my factory hubcaps. Thanks again!

    Taller tires for my 1976 K20

    Or are there Steel 16" rims which Wheel Vintiques or someone makes that might be a bit wider, (so I could use taller tires that are of course slightly wider) that would also accept my factory hubcaps?

    Taller tires for my 1976 K20

    Thanks for all the replies and welcomes! Yes, they did come with wooden beds....it is on the option sheet in the glove box! I had no idea they came as late as 1976 though. Best to all!

    Howdy all! I have heard this is the forum of all forums for our beloved square bodies. I got my start with a 1973 C20 my Dad bought new in 1973. It was a great truck....350, four speed, 3/4 ton beast. They towed a trailer with it full of Large Animal (Cow and Horse) medicines delivered via...
