I have a 96 chevy C1500 Cheyenne sub-model. I'm looking to put new wheels and tires on it. I'm really liking the cragers but I would like to put a wider tire on the back.. Any suggestions, tips, anything I don't know much about wheels and tires. It has no lift, and it's 2wd. Any help would be great

Rather than having bigger tires on the back I'd have them all the same size so they can be rotated to get max miles out of them.

The GMT400's don't take to larger tires real well, especially up front. If I remember right, my 96 C1500 came with 235/75/15's (almost 29" tall), and I ran 265/75/15's for a while (about 30.5" tall and an inch wider) and they rubbed the inside of the front fender lip every time you hit a bump. The rubbing was an easy fix with a hammer, but it should be considered.
