I have a '57 Chevy Panel truck that I've been running 315/70 R15 BFG LT's and now I can't find them. Anyone know a good source or substitute? These tires have good sidewall strength for everyday driving and I want to keep that so the truck doesn't pitch and sway in every corner. Thanks for any help...
Well, that didn't work the link didn't have what I thought it did. If there is a Les Schwab tire store in your area check to see what they have or can get.
I've been hoping for several years that Coker would reintroduce the BFG Sport Truck T/A. About the next best thing would be LT truck tires with street (not 4x4) treads: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=234350
I have purchased 31x10.50x15's before. They are mostly a off road tread but you can find some that are a road tread.
Hoosier makes a Pro Street series of radials that are 31" tall. I think a 31x16.5 and a 31x18.5, if I remember correctly.
Gary, that link helped...looks like the LTX M/S 32 x 11.5 RR15 will work even though they're 1 in narrower. I was looking at Hoosier 31 x 12.5 R15 but they're going for $290 plus disposal, EPA and tax...around $700 mounted and on the road. It's crazy to me that this is such an ordeal. Why did BFG decide to discontinue those tires?
http://www.bfgoodrichtires.ca/specs/long-trail-t-a-tour/3932.html 265/75/15 has 10.5" section width on 7.5" rim and almost 31" diameter.
I know off topic but I saw a pickup in a mag with some Goodyears that looked down right awesome. They even looked like LT style tires just narrow and simple. Anyway I'm sure summit and jegs has the tires your looking for.
