Make sure to measure both sides, with the wheels turned all the way each direction. And as mentioned, be aware of backspacing on whatever wheels you get, it can make a world of difference. |
Thanks everyone. I went out and took some general measurements, not sure if I got exactly what I need. I turned the wheels from side to side and measured only about 3.5 inches of clearance from the inside of the wheel well when all of the way turned; same thing for the edge of the tire to the fender wall when turned as well. With that little of clearance on these 235/75/15's it seems like I might have trouble going very much bigger.
By the way, I tried searching the forum but there are so many random wheel threads that it makes it tough, and I don't really know exactly what terms to search so I apologize again for these questions.
