Tire question?
Hey guys thanks for taking some time to read my post. My truck is a 1995 f150 2wd 351 and I have the stock rims 15x7.5 and I’m wanting to make my tires look more sporty. What’s the widest tire I can put on those rims without getting tall?

My ‘95 F150 SCLB 2WD came with 235/75R-15s as recommended by the door sticker; I replaced all four with 255/70R-15s. I thought about getting some 17” Lightning wheels and some 275/60R-17 tires but those Lightning wheels are getting harder to find....

my size is 31x10.50R15LT. They are wrangler authority’s. I suppose I like the tires I have now. I got over 60,000 miles on these and still climbing. I have 2 inch spacers all the way around. Does wrangler authority make a slightly wider tire to fit on my 7.5 wide rim? I had to trim my bumper a while back to make these tires fit due to the wheel spacers so I’m kinda thinking if I go with a shorter tire, there going to look like there’s more room than there should be so I should prob stick with the same hight. What do you think?

so kinda the pre-runner look? I think issue will be finding in 15" wider 10.50 and not taller, 31 in a 15 " wheel and it stay all terrain, putting a size to compare is one thing finding said tire is another when that big, with that being said, a 285/70/15 is 1" wider, and 30.7" tall, now to find a tire you like that size, that isnt wrangler authority(the bad)
