90 B2200 Tires
Hi everyone!
First post here. Quick backstory, I have a 1990 B2200 auto that I bought last year from the original owner. I've been tire shopping for a bit and have been having a really hard time finding the 14 inch tires that it takes (205/75/14). So I thought maybe I should go up a size, since I'd like it to be a bit beefier anyways, and get 15 inches on instead. I was able to find someone who had the rims and tires and I swapped it over, but didn't do my research first and am now noticing the gearing is totally off. I've been looking into this and it sounds like getting it regeared would be pretty pricey.
So, does anyone have any input here? I'm thinking I'll have to go back to the 14 inch ones and just keep trying to find the right size. I really don't want to go down to a smaller profile tire, but it seems like around here the only 14 inch tires that exist are 205/70/14. What do you all have on your trucks? Have you tried different sizes? What has worked for you and what hasn't?
Thanks!

Go to tirerack.com and search 205/75-14. Scroll down to Kumho Solus TA11. I recently bought these and put them on my 90 B2200. Im very satisfied. $276 for a set of 4, free shipping.
Since these trucks dont have much power, I recommend against bigger tires.
