May I ask what size tires did you replace on your 1958 without doing a lift? I have an issue with the stock 245s as I cannot find any replacements in that size. I'm looking for a more off-road tire but no company makes them in the stock 245 size. I tried to go wider but Costco won't sell me tires other than what the vehicle size is stating.

Greetings. I replaced the stock 1958 tires with Yokohama AT4 Tires in a size LT275-70R18 (Load E). This tire is approx 1.8 inch larger in diameter and approx 1.4 inch wider than the stock 245-70R18 tires. I have plenty of clearance and have taken the truck off road with no issues. My only word of caution about going with bigger tires is to keep in mind that you will need to put a matching size spare tire under the vehicle which will reduce your ground clearance. I have done some research however and found a size for the spare that is "close enough" to the diameter of the 275-70R18 and that size is 245-75R18 (for the spare). Yokohama makes this size in the same tire (AT4) and the diameter is approx 0.7 inches smaller. You can of course fit a 275-70R18 under the car, but since it is an 11 inch wide tire, you will lose about an inch of ground clearance. Good luck with your search....hope this helps.

Glad to help...let me know if you have any other questions.
Hi again, I'm new to tires and trying to understand why it's important to change the spare to match the rest of the tires. What if I go with 255 65 R18 which is very close to the stock 245s, would this work without changing the spare? Reason is for this size, Discount tire told me that is the safe way to go to ensure no issues and that the 255s are very close to the 245s. Also, I assume you changed your tires and kept the same rims. Sorry for all the questions, but I'd like to really upgrade these tires but want to make sure I don't cause any damage to the vehicle. Thank you again for your time.
