Genuine Boyds wheels

Any recommendations for a good supplier/pricing on Boyds Hotrod wheels? I am trying to decide between 20 x 10 all around or 20 x 15 & 18x10

I couldn't have said it better my self. The wheels were purchased by the former owner (no receipt).

Re: Genuine Boyds wheels

you might want to check on tire pricing/availability for 20x15 to help make your decision

I went with 20x10 with a 315/35/20

Re: Genuine Boyds wheels

Thanks for the info guy's.

Mickey thomson tires 29/18/20 are actually reasonable in price. What brand of 315/35/20 did you go with?

Re: Genuine Boyds wheels

Thanks Kevin,

Ken is going to get me some info tomorrow.

Does anyone know if a 29/15/20 tire will fit on a 12" wide wheel. I don't see any difference of the 29/18/20 fitting on a 15" wide wheel? There is little difference in price but I thought the cops would leave me alone more if I was on a 15" wide rear with 10" wide front.

Re: Genuine Boyds wheels

You can also try Jeff at http://www.sportruck.com I've always heard good things about his service. On his website to go the "Shop" link and you'll find Boyd wheels with approx prices. Good luck, let us know what you go with.
