22x9 Coys, 5, or 5.5bs?

[The Big Green]

I've got a '67 C10 laying frame. Which backspace are you guys running, 5in or 5.5in bs?

I've seen a few pics but it's been a while, so any pics you guys wanna post feel free to, because I love to see pics.

[The Big Green]

Got it! 5.5bs Coy! Nevamind guys.

No, but I like the Coys, and they look good on these trucks. JJ and I measured and I can run a 24x10 with a 6-lug conversion with 7bs, but there's a catch, I only have 29in before I get into the hood. I'm going with the Coys and a 295/30/22 probably, and that's 29dia.

[bagged74]

So, I'm confused again?? 6 lug conversion and 24s is a long way from 5.5" backspace on a coys?? What's it gonna be?

Also a 265/35 would be approximately the same diameter but would be a better choice for the front since it's not as wide. 265/35 front 285/35 rear is a nice combo in my opinion

24x10 with a 7" BS is the same as a 22x9 with a 6" BS.

Is a Coys 22x9 with 5.5" BS going to work?
Or is that 1/2" less backspace going to make the tire rub on your fender?

[N2TRUX]

Get the Coys and rock on.

[lolife99]

I'm running a 20x8 with a 5.25" BS on the front of my blazer.
The equilavent of that in a 22x9 would be a 6.25" BS.

But I'm not as low and I still have my inner fenders.
Here's how they tuck.

[bagged74]

What about the 6 lug conversion? Is the boss wheel available in a 22 with a 7" or so backspace in 6 lug?

Trust me the 275/25/24s suck bad

Boss 330 in a 22x9 5.75, or 6.25bs, and I could run a 22/24 staggered look. I'd have to do a 6-lug swap.

Boss 335 in a 22x9 with a 6.25bs, I stay 5-lug, but no staggered look because no 24 in this wheel.

Boss 313 in a 22x9.5 with 5.682 or 6.785 in a 6-lug, and I can do a staggered with the 24.

[FnLow69]

i like the 313's the best of those three.

[bagged74]

Looks like the 313 might be your best bet

[The Big Green]

313 is similar to the 308 I had before so I like it. I like the multispoke look on these trucks. I can do a 22/24 in a 5lug but I can't do a choice of two bs in the 5, if I do the 6lug I can get the better, deeper offsets so that's what I'll do.

[The Big Green]

What tires do you guys recommend for a 22/24? I have 29in before I hit the hood and I'm not sure before I get over the bedside, but I think it has notch for a 32dia tire. If I run a 22x9.5 with 6.785bs what 24 would be best? There's a 24x10 with 5.91 and 7.1.

[SCOTI]

10" w/the 5.91" would give the deeper dish (or the staggered offset). Only you can know for sure if you need that BS or the deeper 7.10". What year rear housing do you have?

A 265/35-22 would be 29.3" tall.

[lolife99]

Can you order in both backspaces and try them?
The other choice is to measure.
Do you have a steel wheel (with no tire mounted) that you can bolt to the rearend and measure off of?

The only other option is to take it to bagged74's place and let him measure.

I don't know what else to tell you.

You need to measure both sides to verify how much the rearend shifts when you air it out.

Pretty sure both bs will fit but which could possibly look better on back if I run the 22x9.5 with 6.785bs on front. I don't want the back sunk in too far. I'm guessing that the rear if 10in and 7.1 would be out almost level with the front, but out very little. The 7.1 may hit because the 10in I tried was 6.29 and it was close but I have measurements somewhere.


I'd love to have Bagged74 do measurements but I have a 24in 5.91bs and a tire mounted that I'll try tomorrow. I'd measure but I really like the seeing if it fits thing.

[lolife99]

ok.
good luck.

Anyone got a link to the 6lug rotors I need from ECE? I can't find the ones I need no matter what I search for on there.

Here you go. Link doesn't change when you're in the catalog, so I saved a picture with the part number. Call them, they'll make sure you get the right thing.

[The Big Green]

Thanks for the pic. I hate computers so I always call and order. Also, thats not bad for a 6lug conversion.

[The Big Green]

Boss 313, this is my wheel! If I measure from my old wheel correct it should fit fine. My old wheel was 20x8.5 with a bs of 5.1, that means my front clearance would be the same on a 9.5 wide wheel and 6.1, and a 10in on 6.6bs. I'm thinking the 9.5in and 6.78 would be ok maybe but it'll be sunk way back in because my old 20's were. I'm looking at a 9.5 with 5.75 which is .34 out farther than my old 20in, which should be fine. I'm tried a 22x10 that fit fine and was 6.3, so the 9.5 and 5.75 should be about the same on the outside right?

Wheel posted above in a 22/24, after weeks of looking thats the one I'm getting.
