need some rim help
« on: May 05, 2010, 04:21:03 PM »
ok I have just picked up a set of tires for my rig and need help on the rims. before anyone says anything I know they are REALLY wide but I could not pass up the deal (4 MT MTZ 38.5 16 16.5 with 200 miles on them for $200) now what rim do i need to run (size / offset) to not rub if at all possible.

as far as fitting and not rubbing it all depends on how much your truck is lifted/how far your axle is moved forward.. ect. i did find a website that listed recommended rim widths. mickey thompson recommends 11-13" wheel for their 15.50 width tires. putting that wide of a tire on where it wont rub your springs is gonna push it out far enough that your scrub radius is gonna be crap... but those were really cheap so it would have been hard to pass up..
PUT'ER IN 4-LO EH.
