wheel and tire question

wow gmc, those are 31s? they look small!

It will fit, the bow effect will not be as noticeable due to the taller sidewall. Yes it will wear more towards the centers of the tread, and no it shouldnt be a problem on the highway. BUT, they will not clear the frame or suspension at full lock, and you will need to trim your fenders to clear. In my opinion I would go with a 33/12.50 or a 285/65/16, with these your tires wont be bowed and they will clear with no problems if you have a lift. If you have no lift forget about it. Theres no way your fitting a 33 under a stock 1500.

Look how they look below. I think your going to have problems have the tire shop try one on for you and check but remember if you do any hunting or ride on a bumpy road they might rub.

Dude that's a SWEET cruiser! LOVE step/sport sides! That's how a cruiser should look! Nice job!

I agree, not quite my cup of tea either, but still a pretty nice truck. Mad props!
