tires sizes

currently running 225 70 15. A fella told me they are going to become hard to get. Im assuming that i can run 215 70 15s with no problem. I need 2 more decent tires ( prolly used ) before winter. Thanks!

If you're going to get a different size tire, get 4 so you dont have two smaller than the others. Also that seems like quite a skinny tire.

A 235/75r15 would more then likely fit also. You have quite a few options. Post what truck you have.

At least the 99's have 15 inch wheels. My 1996 B3000 has the 225/70-14 as stock....which is hard to find (using 205/75-14 winters). :(

If you change from stock, your speedo will be off accordingly.

Just like what Cole said. 235/75/15 would work, They are not that much bigger.
