Rim Help
Will F@#* 8 lug rims fit on my Longhorn? What is the smallest tire that you recommend to run with 20 inch rims? Right now I run 255-55-18 and they do not rub. The truck has a 4-6 drop and I want to see if I can squeez some 20's on it. I saw a ad selling F&*% 20's 8 lug for a real good price and want to know if I should go for it?

Re: Rim Help
All 8-lug pickup wheels (GM, Ford, Dodge) were 8x6.5 pattern and interchangeable (with the exception of some smaller center holes/larger axles) until Ford, in its wisdom, changed to 8x170mm a few years ago. I can't recall which year they changed, and I'm getting conflicting info from Google.
edit: Looks like they went to 170mm pattern in 1999...
