6400GVWR
Original rim size is 15 x 6.5
5x5.5 pattern
p235/75/15 Xl 36 front 41 rear, is what my door placard says on my 89 b250. Starcraft conversion
I've been running 30x9.5x15s, but have never weighed my converted '89, but I carry a good amount of additional weight, and if I run 50PSI they wear in the middle faster than the edges.
I know of a female couple with an extended converted 1988 b250 running LT235 75 15's, and they know they carry way too much weight inside.
I've always been concerned about the light 3/4 ton with 15 inch rims and tires and 5 lugs, but my only tire related issues, not related to age, were buying some noname tires which did not Like Baja's washboard.
When those tires failed at speed they took out the rims.
The aftermarket rims I bought are not as burly as the originals and the hub size is too big for proper idiot proof wheel centering, but they have 100K miles on them.
I keep considering acquiring 16 inch rims and higher rated tires, but keep coming back to the fact that I do not require full PSI in my LT load range C
1984x4=7936
GVWR is 6400
Unconverted and empty, vehicle weight is just under 4000lbs.
