C20 rim size??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just got a Cheyenne 20 longbed. I ordered 10" x 16" rims for it, but now that I am looking at the truck I think the 10" might be to deep for the front. I want the tires to fit flush with the outer fender/bed and i don't want it to rub in the front. The truck has a 2" body lift as well. The tires I was considering would be around 33" x 12.5. I want the same height on all four tires even if the depth is different.

My question is...(before I go buying tires and getting everything mounted) will the front 10" rim and tire stick out way further than the same rim and tire in the back?

That will work.Especially since it has a 2" lift.The tires on the front will fill the wells nicely.

The only problem you might have is when you crank the wheel all the way to lock, the tires might rub a little. I have that problem but it's no big deal.
