That rim/tire combo is perfect for a 2wd.

i thought about the 295's but they are smaller than the 275's and not much wider... :P the 275's are about an inch smaller than the 235's that was on the truck...

i never could find any 315's... and ive looked into the heavy duty cooling radiators that are all metal (copper/brass) but expensive lol

thanks for the complements made my day

I really like the tires too. I'm not a fan of 295 50 15, they are too short and too wide. I would only change the tires, if I were going to put BFG ATs.

I tried one of the old school type radiators and that did not work as well as a stock replacement. My truck did not run as cool as normal and it only lasted about 2 years before going out.

Plus a radiator from a 92 up won't fit exactly right in a 91 down. (At least that's been my experience)
