That's good to hear

 

Think of all the mods u could do with $10,000 that he spent on paint haha

 

Its a pre-runner. Think of all the $10,000 he could save by keeping it stock.

 

Center at a minimum. Saved me some damage when I ran over a log. It snapped and bounced off the center hoop. Scarred the poo out if me

 

I am looking for someone with 35s on 16" wheels to participate in an experiment. The lift I have has the following restrictions:


Max Tire Size: 35X12.50
Wheel Size Range (Inch):18+Wheel Width Range (Inch):8-9
Min-Max Backspace (Inch)4.0-4.65


As you all know and have given me plenty of crap over, I am "rolling on dubs" right now. I'd like to go to a smaller wheel size for more sidewall and I am curious if the 16's will fit or if I am going to have to find 18s. I'd like to get with a volunteer to check fitment of 16s. Or am I in left field and just need to stick with the manufacturers recommendations?

 

There seems to be a better variety of tires in the 16" and 17" range and better prices too. Once you start looking at tires for 18" wheels and above the brands become limited and prices of tires skyrocket. Unless I'm looking in the wrong places.

 

Don't let us get to you! I'm sure with less backspacing you could easily get 17s in there and then run some 35s that way. We are just a bunch of haters and linwood likes to goat folks into stuff. But if you want to do more aggressive wheeling than those 20s are going to need to go. If not just flip us off and tell us to get fucked!

 

Randy look at the SCS 17s in 3.0 BS...those might clear your spindle.

 

Scs doesn't make a wheel with 3.0 bs. It's either 4.3(17s) or 4.5(16s)

 

You can try one of my 17x9 with 4.5bs and -12 mm offset..I have 35x12.50s or u can try my spare which is the same wheel but a 33x12.50

 

Hmmmmmm coulda sworn they did...

 

they only make 2 models right now. ones in 16 and one in 17. and only one bs for each one. now, they are makin a 3rd that will have different specs but right now its only what i posted before.

now i guess they could of had a custom one off made, but i havent seen it posted in their 2 threads for their wheels

 

No one is getting to me. I want new wheels that achieve what I want, more sidewall. I'd like to get 16s or 17s in there, but when it comes to all the numbers I am clueless.

Matt, I may take you up on this offer...you free this weekend? I may have duty engineer for work, but should be able to swing by and try to fit it on there.


Speaking of weekend...any plans for a mod day in the near future? I ordered BeeRad's hood light kit, need to actually weld and install the metal I have for sliders, need to do my CMC, cut my fenders and let Loco beat the shit out of my fenderwells to get rid of some of his pent up frustration , and just generally want to wrench on something.

 

Work this weekend off next

 

I need a mod day as well. Haven't had a day off from honey do list in over a month.

Will hopefully have bedrack in next 2 weeks if the fab guy follows through.

Still haven't done CB install, and need to get bedrail lights installed and start working on aux electrical system. Going to move compressor to toolbox, along with a national luna power pack.

 

Sounds good I'm in no hurry.

Say when? I can make it over to your place any evening...


Brent, wanna weld?

 

Might have been their new simulated bead lock wheel that came in 4.xx or 3.0.

 

Do I hear wheeling trip??
