Hey all, I just picked up 4, 15x7s cop rims with caps and would like some ideas on what tire size to go with on the 74 runner.
Thanks

I have a 74 Bird too. I used BFG P235/60-15's on the front. I like the look, no clearance issues. Cant afford rears yet but was looking at P275/60's for them. The 15x7 rim is good cause the rears would look "squeezed" on a 6in. I like the low-key look of the coppers with dog-dishes! Might also want to try the black rims with no caps and chrome nuts only, for that "all-business" sleeper look that I really like. No matter what, send pics!

Thanks Scott, loads of options and still unsure of which way to go. I love the black look with chrome nuts but the car is a metalic Sassy Grass with the white stripe so I think that look is out LOL.
Thanks again the size for the front helps.

Yeah, not exactly going for the sleeper look huh? HAHA! I'm in my 40's, so my tastes can be kinda ole' skool at times, but if you are daring, I think that some 16's and maybe a rear 18 might actually work on the car. There are alot of retro-style rims out there redone in modern sizes. And with that screamin color, I think you could pull it off. IMHO. Good luck on whatever you decide to do. Still want pix! Scotty. BTW, if you do go in that direction, I might be interested in the coppers.

16s ??? 18s??? I am also in my 40s {late} and am very old school anything over 15" and I hate it LOL. The car has 17s on it now and I can't wait to swap them out.
