a 10" wide rim is kinda wide for a non lifted truck...i would say a tire that is 12.50 in width is perfect for that rim...you could even go wider but i think you are gonna run into a problem with a 10" wide wheel on a non lifted truck...MAYBE if it was leveled and some trimming, but then offset plays a role too

a 305/50?/18 tire should fit pretty good without cranking the t bars. the backsacing plays a big part too

thats a big tire.....just replace the front shocks with some longer ones and crank her up a bit. the longer shocks should take care of the bad ride usually associated whith cranking the bars. your going to have to do some trimming with a wheel that wide. a 33" tire would look sweet
