Re: New wheels

Re: New wheels
I'm setting up my '72 LWB with 8.5 x 20", and 12 x 20". I've got the rear narrowed 2" per side and I'm planning on a mini-tub (but it isn't done yet). The tires sizes are gonna be 255/40 on the front and 315/35 on the rear. The BS has me a little concerned though.
What back spacing are you using on the front and the rear? |

Re: New wheels
It's a crying shame that they don't take the stickers off at your shop makes it look so cheap

Re: New wheels
Truck was already tubbed from previous owner, tubs are 15" inside the bed, it easily has 2-3" between the tire and tub, truck still sits on original leaf springs
