Tires?

[Oak51]

Got a '97 Hoe, and thinking about going with the Cragar soft 8 black wheels, any suggestions on good tires and where I can get some black center caps for the wheels?

I like Goodyear Wranglers but there are others out there that are good as well.

Cool thanks for the help, any idea of how big of a tire I can run with those wheels? I don't have a lift/drop or anything like that. Not trying to go super big, but the stock wheels make my truck look like a toy.

What size are the wheels? I've got soft 8's on my 77 (originally were on my '95, though) and I could check the tire size when I get home. Mine are 16x8.

Thought about sticking with the 16's or maybe getting the 17's

Assuiming your Hoe is 4wd I'd honestly probably go with 17's as the 16's may look a tad small know what I mean? I'll still shoot ya what tire I'm running when I get home, though, and it'll give ya at last a good idea. I think it's a 285/xx/r16. I just don't remember what the 'xx' is off the top of my head.

i run 265/70-17 on my NNBS. I got my soft 8 from summit racing all 4 for 300 bucks shipped. As far as black caps, your gonna have to paint the caps black.

Oak...I'd definitely use sumo tire size! His looked really good on mine I got 245/75/16 so a little small for a 4x4 rig...
