Is this a decent deal for a set of used MT wheels and tires?

Looks like a good deal, but can we fit 15" wheels on our trucks?

 

They won't clear the calipers. 16s barely do.

 

Ahhhh...good catch!! Thanks!!

 

So, the trucks with 16" wheels stock, do they have smaller OEM calipers?

 

To the best of my knowledge, no. There is just really not very much space between the wheel and the caliper.

To give you an idea, it's so tight that if you double stack the standard stick on balancing weights, the second stack will get ground off by the caliper. Ask me how I know that....

 

And me, too. Every time I swap my tires to/from wheeling, I always notice those spots where the glue was.

 

Thanks for saving me from buying those 15” wheels.

Found a set of 5 - 17” wheels on eBay and won them on auction last night for $500.00. Now just need to buy tires for my off road setup.

 

Glad you found some!.

I think next time around Im just going to say F-it and get some Courser MTs or something gnarly like that. Ruin it so I have to buy a DD for around town lol

 

I’m leaning towards the Nankang Mudstar. They’re cheap and gnarly.

 

Yeah, looks like a damned tractor tire lol

 

More like a landscape tire.

 

I'm down to give it a try for some mild stuff. Still stock and have that "new truck" vibe so I'll be a pussy about it for a while lol.

 

I buffed mine once.

 

Look like a knock-off KM2. But I like that price, wonder the weight

 

Richmond, Indiana here!

 

Also, the reviews say they suck balls in wet weather. AKA = KM2-like

 

That's fine. If you want to get it out on trails shout at someone in here. You can do pretty much all of the DBBB without risk of damage bone stock, and I know most of us would go with you if you say the word.

 

Where is that at? I would possibly have a buddy or two that might be interested as well. I would like to take it out and see this trucks weak points are stock. Which I imagine the stock Good Years are a major one lol.

 

Im in for some DBBB action.

I follow the Ohio River 4 Wheeler guys, but they all seem to be Jeeps on 37s and rarely do a normal trail ride.....though I think they might be having a trail cleanup day in the not-so-distant future.
