    I recently got a new set of wheels for my 91 toyota pickup and they're 16x8. I'm not really sure what kind of tires to get. I know I want low profile tires but I don't know what size to get. I don't want them stretched too much, just a little. If you can recommend a tire size for me that would be great. Thank you.

    I have 16x8 on mine now I'm running 205/50/16's they look good and low profile I would recommend that or 195/50/16's it all depends on what you want

    But in the future I'm putting 15x10s with 205/50/15s on it to get my truck even lower

    How low are you right now? I'm two inches by spindles in the front and three in the rear by blocks

    I've got spindles in front and torsion drop to give me like 3-4 inches in front and 3 inch leaf springs with 3 inch drop blocks in the rear for a total of 6 inches in the rear ... So the front of my truck sits a little higher than the rear but I'm going to fix that once I'm done with the body work
