Rim ideas on the 2.7L? Post a pic of yours

Anyone have any ideas? What have you installed? Are you happy with them? Has your ride experience changed? Lets see them!

Watch wheel and tire weights with the 2.7. Other than that get what you like!

 

Here is mine, 16" trd bronze wheels wrapped in 265 75 16 Falken Wild Peak AT3Ws! Here is a few pics!


Loaded up with wood:

 

Love it! How does it ride? Smooth? They look great! Did you lift it or does it fit with stock height?

 

That's a 3" ome lift kit with 887 coils and dakar leaf springs and firestone ride rite air bags! And light racing upper control arms!

 

Is there any rim and tire set that you know of that does not require a lift?

 

255/80/17 cooper doscoverer ST maxx on scs stealth 6 wheels. The ride quality going from a 265/70/17 duratrac on a stock sport wheel to these is like driving on a CLOUD. And the coopers are dead silent. Ive already put 100 miles on them and they have not changed in noise level yet.

 

You can run 265 75 16s with no lift and have no rubbing issues. Here is my truck on stock height with 265 75 16s and also your chance run 1,25" spidertrax wheel spacers on the stock steel rims with no issues either!

Without lift and no spacers:

No rubbing as long as your alignment is good lol. I rubbed at full lock with a little flex pulling into my driveway with 265/70/17 on the LCA but thats normal.

 

Nice build. Are you running stock gears on those 255s? How's the power with that set up?

 

Yes stock gears. Power is not that great driving. Its about the same as the 265s speed is definitely a factor though. My milage is dropping... Somewhere around 16 is what I am getting I think. Maybe even less.

 

Rides like a dream!

 

What's happening with your new wheels purchase?:

Sold them to a buddy of mine and he is putting them on his 2014 Pyrite mica sport long bed. Using the money I made for a new headunit! Looking at a pioneer 8200nex!

 

For the guy asking about if I was regeared. It holds speed at that exact point any less gas pedal and I start losing speed
