I just ordered 31x10.50 - 15s for my 73 F100 2wd. I've always had 235/75/15 in the past and though they are the 'correct' size, I thought they looked too small...

i had 245/70/15 in the back and 225/60/15 in the front on 93 bronco wheels

i have also ran 275/60/15 in the back but the rim was a little too narrow for them causing premature wear

if you can find them the 93 light'n wheel will fit too on the f-100 and f-150

Yes. That is the factory size for your pickup. But the "P" indicates passenger car tire. These have lighter sidewalls and tend to bulge from the weight of the pickup and are unsafe with a load. I would recommend finding pickup tires, they usually have "LT" in the size.
