I need some help on tire selection. I have posted a picture of my 1994 silverado below. It does have belltech shackles on the back. The tires on it now look very undersized to me. I would like to go with something that will give it a sporty, aggressive look. Probably going to go with the B/F radials unless someone has a better suggestions. I'm thinking 275/60/15 but i am really wanting some feedback.

Keep these things in mind;
It's not a daily driver
It will probably never see rain/snow
I would guess less than 5,000 miles per year
I'm not going to be towing or hauling with this truck
It won't be going over 85mph

Thanks in advance for the help. Keeping the same SS wheels for now.

Sporty and aggressive with those rims? Lol

I'm not good with metric
What size is on there now so I can compare visually

When u say aggressive are you talking about beef tread? And "sporty" rims?

I like the BFG wranglers
But they might look too aggressive
I'd go with A deeper dish and maybe then taller tire
What's the amount its lowered?
Front and back?

Looks like it could use a 4 corner mod

But I'm biased I think it should have come from factory

At the moment, i plan on keeping the SS wheels. They are currently 225/75-15. I was thinking about the 275/60/15 because that was the OEM tire on the SS trucks.

By aggressive, i meant more stance and profile than thread design. As i noted, i really like the looks of the BFG t/a's but was hoping for advice on the size.

Rear is lowered 3" The front looks lower than stock to me but i can't verify.

Thanks in advance,

255/70r15 looks really sharp... Seen a truck on another forum awhile back and the stance was perfect.

I have bfg 255/70/15 on mine considering the 275 but I think actual ss wheels are wider than regular sport wheels
