89 B2200 wheel size
 
I am about to receive my new-to-me 89 B2200 extended cab. A couple of people remarked that it looks lowered, although I was able to lie underneath it to look at the frame etc.
It has 14", 6 bolt aftermarket rims. Is this normal? I got thinking if it originally had 15" that might explain the lower look. It would also be a lot more sensible to me.
And if it turns out that 15" was normal I guess my speedo will be out of whack.
So that's my question - what was the original rim and tire size on these?
Thanks,
Jim

RE: 89 B2200 wheel size
 
205-75r14 is the stock size for an 89 b2200 235 70 r14 are wider but same size tall and im in the process of strapping on
235-40zr17's on mine its easy to lower a b2200 by crankin out the torsion bars although for thier time they were lower than most other mini trucks. you can raise it back up by cranking these bars in. they go rfom the a frames to the frame and are about 3 feet long be careful tho the bolts have a tendancy to break

Yes stock rim size on most of them was 14", I'm not sure about the factory alloys though. Don't forget to adjust your camber after tweaking the tortion bars. Here are some other rims that will fit with some tweaking for those who are interested:
