tire and rim size help

im new to this so please bare with me

i have a 98 prerunner and have a 3 inch body and 3 suspension left and have 32x11.50r15 on thats how the truck came when i got it i wanna get new tires and rims whats the biggest i can go?

id like to get at least 16in rims the 15s look a little to small

any advice will help

thanks

 

Welcome. Lose the body lift get 16/8" wheels black. And do a 285/75/16 tire setup. That will look the best. Don't do body lifts they look bad and they are week not even a 1" body lift.

 

The 285/75/16 is = with 33.3/11.5/16

 

Thanks a lot

Since the rims will be one inch bigger and tires also will they rub against anything

 

You could fit up to 35's with a little trimming with 6" but then you would NEED to regear. Gearing isnt cheap. Although would be cheaper with a prerunner you only need rear gears.

 

Get the proper Backspacing to eliminate rubbing on the frame/ UCA

 

I thought it was 32.8/11.2/16

 

sorry your right. but still do a 3" lift on 285/75/16 and it will look nice and cleen.

 

Yea, for sure... Dan, my .02, take off the body lift, have a nice 3" suspension set up and 285/75/16's, your be very pleased.

 

would 15s look good or will they look to small i found some rims that i liked but only have them for size 15s

 

My advice, keep the 15'' rims dude. Tires are cheaper for them and you can deflate the tires alot without hitting the rim most likely.

and i agree with the above statement. Get ride of the body lift and get 33'' tires. You'll be more then pleased im sure

 

What's the difference between 33x10.50r15 and 33x12.50r15 which is better

 

Depends on your preferance and what kind of gas mileage you want.

 

The whole reason I got 16" rims is because there is a bigger variety of tire sizes. To me, 10.5" were to skinny, and 12.5" were too wide. With 16" rims, 285s are 11.2" wide and 285/75s are almost 33s (32.8").

 

im having a hard time finding wheels that would fit my 98 prerunner. any suggestions on some black wheels that fit?

 

Moto Metal 951's in black, 16x8" with 4.5" BS. I have a 99 PreRunner, so they would fit yours too.
