I had 265/35/22 front/305/40/22 rear of my '85 C10. Now I have 295/35/22 on the rear. Truck is about 3 inches off the ground. 4link with QA1 coilovers in the rear. Way better ride over flipped axle and leaf springs. Finding a staggered tire in the same thread pattern is a pita...

Yeah all these newer trucks have the wheel offset to the outside of the rim, my rims have about 5/32" of room inside with the lips rolled. I think I have about 1/2 inch of tire showing above the rim in the rear. I liked the 305/40 a lot, I believe it was an older Nitto that isn't available anymore.

That depends on where you drive it I guess. The side wall isn't going to be very tall at all :/ mine aren't. Theres a lot thinner though I guess. But mines a toy, to pick on ricers, Mustangs and Camaros lol. Haven't ever really driven anywhere with big holes. On the highway the 265/35 isn't bad at. But I don't know how much of a pothole it could take. the 40 wouldn't be much more really. Honestly, I got a few different cheap tires of craigslist. Some were in pairs and some singles. I mounted them myself just to get an idea of what I wanted to run.
