So I picked up a K10 with the original 6 lug rally wheels. That was one reason I wanted a 6 lug truck.(love the rally wheel look) I wanted to have a stock look (factory look) on the outside, with all modern internal's on the inside. So tire size is my next debate. This will be a daily driver. The k10 has new mud tires on it now. I dont like them or even the look. To off road for me and Im sure they are road noise from hell.
I have no plans on lifting the truck. I have a 86 2WD that has 31x10.5 tires and it looks pretty good. Im guessing that would be a good size for the k10 but would like to see what it looks like on a 4x4 before i commit. the tires are $300 a piece and I dont want to make a bad decision.

here is the 86 2WD with 31's on stock ride height with a BB and SB springs LOL

I have 31s on an 85 Silverado K10 shortbed. According to the glovebox, that was what it came with new.
I have them on a 1980 GMC K15 longbed that originally had 235 15s and they look sharp.
I also have them on a 1979 K5.
All are on 6 lug ralleys and none are lifted trucks.

As far as I can tell I see no indications of it being lifted BUT these trucks aren't my strong suit

Same size tire but more of a street tread on factory steel wheels with 1.5" spacers (they were on it when I bought it last month)

I have a stock 87 V10 4 X 4, stock height, original springs no lift. It has 32 X 11.50 mud tires on stock rally wheels on it and it looks great, perfect in my opinion. A little better than 31 X 10.50.

Here ya go. 78 k10, factory ride height and 31 10.50 on 8 inch wheels. I love it. The 235’s look too small to me.
