so if these tires don't work should I get 215/60 or 215/55's? I don't really want to drop the truck more than 2 inches. I do live in kansas so the roads have a bit more character
well that didn't work... So maybe these wheels would work for someone... but not me. Day I brought the truck home... all $2K of her: And the test fitting 15x8.5 w/3.75 backspacing But now you're my ex-girl 'cause I'm on with the next girl
i had 18x10.5 +13 in the front and 18x12 +6 in the rear im daily on 17x8 +38(3mm spacer to clear center caps) 17x9+38
The problem is that these wheels stick out of the fender a good 2 inches. Less of a deal if anyone would stretch tires here, but it is impossible and I don't want to drive into the city. the problem here is not the width but that It is something like -32 et / 3.75 bs. I don't know if I could roll/pull the fenders enough with some 215/55's to clear. I also don't want to start putting different body parts on my truck for a set of damn wheels. I want them, but am confused about how this would work... Spoka, you truck is amazing in all iterations btw.
I would suggest rolling the bed fenders a little and putting on 4x4 fenders. It will have a sick stance with some awesome wheels. I would for sure be worth it. If not just throw some times on it and let it hang over a little.
When you guys say 4wd fenders are you talking the full metal panel or a plastic bushwacker type fender.
So if I just put tires on them and rolled the fender said to hell with it, would it rub like a b? I mean these things are going to stick out alot and I am not sure I am down with that... flush it one thing....
Depends on how low you go. I would say go with 4x4 fenders and roll them. Then put some streched tires on and stiffin up the ride and it should look sick
SD Yota is the guy to talk to. Go check out his build log. Hes gonna tuck 15x8 with a -32 or something like that. Go read up on it. http://www.toyotaminis.com/forum/build-up-project-threads-25/sd-yotas-project-interceptor-9740/
Here you go: 15x7 with 3.5 backspace (-12mm offset) 195/50 tires. 2wd fenders with rolled lips and a slight pull. 3.5" backspace sticks out .25" more than the 3.75" would. BTW, your truck looks like a nice find for 2g's!
those wheels r sick!!!!! i love the euro style pattern. ya man something like that i would find some 225/40 or 215/50- thatll give u a impressive stretch with low prifle that can handle a rough road ( i live in the buffalo area, i should know lol) i run 205/50/15 and never hit rim.
