when I get home I’ll take a pic of mine. I got 8x15 rims (or 15x8 whichever goes first) and 255/70/r15 on rear and 235/60/r15 on front. Both are copper radial gts

15" wheel with 35" tires but if you have the room 40" tires that will make it pop.
I have not checked but if they make the tires in a 17" wheel size go with that as I am sure 15" will be hard to get down the road as most new cars & truck are using the larger size wheels from the factory.

Lots of choices all depends on are you trying to keep a retro/stock look or going full on restomod?

To sorta future proof it, 17" is currently about the best diameter for tire options, with 16"-17" being the best for truck tires and 17"-18" being the best for car tires.

Now when you made the first post you should have said it was a 4x2 and posted that picture so we had something to go by.
I don't think I would change a thing as it looks good just the way it is.
