Tire recommendation please

[TexasJNG]

Yes, another one, please have patience and help me do something I have never done before.

I've owned 30+ cars and bean a hot rodder my whole life (50 years) however I have always trusted tire fitment to the tire shop guy or bought the car with the combination already. So anyway.

1996 2WD extended cab. It is stock height (Belltech 2/4 planned) and I already bought the wheels. I bought these Halibrand wheels (front 19X8.5 rear 19x10). Can you recommend a tire combination for nearly stock rolling diameter?

As always y'all are awesome and I appreciate you helping me make this list ride my dream.

If you’re planning on a 2/4 drop I would suggest a 245/45/19 on the front and a 275/40/19 on the rear.

I’m curious to see how the 19s look I’ve been thinking about going down to 19s myself from 20s.

Your stock tire diameter is likely 29" (i.e. 235/75r15).

If you’re planning on a 2/4 drop I would suggest a 245/45/19 on the front and a 275/40/19 on the rear.

These are 27.7" diameter. They will work, just know they are shorter but appropriate for a future drop.

I live in rural(ish) Texas and low profile is just begging for damage. Roads are not great, even when they are great. So hopefully a 19" gives me a little more padding.

Yup I think the roads are crappy anywhere in Texas with much population. Went up country last weekend, Highway 90A is old but still in good shape. And I say this as someone with a one ton that needs shocks and always has the tires aired up.....
