White Walls

where's the best place to get some new white walls for the pickup? Any suggestions on tire sizes would be appreciated too. I'll be using the stock rims with hubs.

Sears auto center or Pep Boys... 235/70-15 or 215/75/15s. The latter is stock size.

I think yer gonna have to increase your budgeted cost.

I doubt you'll find any new white wall tires with the load capacity for a truck (or any tires) for less than $200.

Rubber prices have gone way up recently and tires are not cheap.

BTW: don't skimp on cheap tires.

Your life (and possibly other's) are dependent on what you choose to roll on........

Yeah whitewalls are not too easy to find lately and usually not cheap when you do. Saw some Hankooks on ebay a couple days ago that I may get for $86. ea. free shipping from Discounttire, 235/75-15. Later.

Those tires are $197 each.....

If your talking under $200 each, that's a whole other story. I thought you meant 4 tires for under $200 in your original post.

I understood the OP as $200 for a set of four tires.

'been looking around and the low range is around $65 to $90 per tire.
