any one know where I can find 15x7 and 15x8 weld rims. what size tires do you think I should run. The only website I found was Weldracing.com
Id run a 15x7...that way if you ever want to drop it down you wont have to worry about hitting the outside of the fenders or bed.
I would run 15X7 with 3.5 BS in front and 15X8 with 4.5 BS in the rear. I've seen them on Summitracing.com, jegs.com, or on Ebay.
My bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Different Screen Name....... Sorry being drinking. Trying to prep to this weekend bacholer party....... Titties and beer........
depending on how far of a drop you are looking to go, depends on what wheels you will want to take a look at... honestly take the time to calculate wheel offset, wheel width, and tire size before you jump into "fitting" tires... i say drop it first to your desired height and then match a wheel to your specs...... everyone always seems to do it backwards including myself 15x7's would likely be a "safe" bet but, given the right offset and tire combo, 15x8's may be possible
I have dropped the truck 3" in the front and 3" in the back. I am not going to bag the truck. I want it to be a street/strip truck. I am not to sure about the offset not to knowledgeable about that information.
this link has been a real helpful tool in calculating the right wheel and tire size/offset and position issues ivve run into. play with it and see what you come up with. http://www.bigcustomwheels.com/rt_specs.jsp
On my truck I have Weld super singles in a 15x8 and they rub like hell, even with 4x4 fenders and bed, 15x7 are a better bet. I have pretty much the same drop as yours.
The wheels have past through about 10 hands since the were new, but you should be able to find a cheap set on summit, 15x8 5 on 4.5 weld super single. The tires are 205 50 15. Falcon Zeix.
weld racing is back in buisiness!!! kinda long already im not to sure if they promoting it out to the public tho yet.
Yeah but they no longer make offroad truck wheels. Just drag, oval, sprint and there couple of hotrod wheels, its a shame.
