King of stuffing tires on 15x8 Rally's!

Just put on a set of Pro-Trac N50's on my Rally's. Man they are huge. I was crossing my fingers they did not hit the Inside. Here are the specs.

Measurement Width Diameter Cross Sect Rim
N50-15 (28x13-15) 11.30 27.87 12.65 8-12

In Metric terms these equal about a 345/50-15.

They clear by about 1 1/4 inches on the inside and are about the same distance from poking outside the bed as well. Just ordered my digital camera so it will be a few days before pics.

Yes, definately post pics. You did exactly what I was thinking about, just didn't know if it would work or not without going to a 10 inch rim.

It looks bad A$$. I could tuck them if I was going real low. Hope my digi-cam gets here soon.

That looks cool, wonder how they'll wear though with that wide of a tire on an 8" rims.

BTW, how are your 38" PJ's wearing on your Blazer? How many miles you got on them? and are they 15" or 16" rims? I want more aggressive tires, just don't wanta blow alot of money have them last only 10,000

PJ's still look brand new. I have had them a year but my job is only like 7-8 miles away. Actual milage I have is unknown. They ride awesome and road noise is way low.

Did you have to modify the bed or wheel tubs to fit those monster tires? That looks really good with those rallies.. Let me know. I plan to order some new back tires for my truck next week..

Not right now. I still need a few parts before it comes off the jack stands. Maybe in a couple weeks

I think that looks great. Was that stock height? Just wondering what kind of drop I can run.

It was stock height...but if you take it down it will rub either on the outside or the inner fenderwell---at least on mine it would. That wasn't the look I was going for.
