Just wondering what sort of specs would be for a 16-17 inch wheel would be to get for my 2wd, without rubbing, or sticking way out? These are the wheels I'm looking into getting. Wheels - 16 in. Wheel Diameter - Steel Wheel Material - Black Primary Wheel Color - Gloss Wheel Finish - Search Results for rim - SummitRacing.com Not going for looks, just for something a bit wider, as my truck is a tow vehicle.
I'm not lowering this truck in any way, shape, or form. But, I will look through some threads to see if I can find the back spacing, in inches.
My wheels tuck and are (pretty sure) a 42 mm negative offset they are a 18 wheel with a 215/35/18 tire.
WOW! I have to to say I have never seen negative offset that high... Do you have like 11" wide rims with aftermarket offroad fenders? Maybe you mean positive? If thats the case then there is no way you are flush to the fender without a spacer which is how 95cammedpickup wants it. 42mm is about 1 2/3" forward of the center line. You need about 4" of rim from mounting surface to fender lip.
I'm looking for something like 16x8 or 17x8, so I can do a normal tire rotation when the time comes. I'm going with a 16 or 17 inch rim, so I have clearance for upgraded front and rear brakes. I'm primarily looking for the backspacing in inches that have worked best for others, with, or without being lowered. However, my truck will be staying at stock height.
Well, there is the best way to do it and the best guess-timate way to do it. That link I gave you will help, doesn't matter if you lower it or not. I can explain in more detail if you don't get it still but its pretty simple.
Those wheels will fit fine 16x8 looks to be a zero offset rim they poke just a tad but if your not lowered your good just don't get a massive tire
