Owner of this truck?? And reverse rim?
Looking to go with bigger wheels and this (Black Truck below) is the exact stance/rim size I'm looking for... just hoping someone on here knows the owner so I could get some specs. Doesn't really look like 18/20 but rather 18/18 or 20/20? I've been crunching rim and tire sizes on the online chart for two nights and I'm ready to pull my hair out. I want to fill the wheel wells without rubbing and set the truck fairly level.
Also wondering if someone could explain what a reverse rim is and what the benefits are. My current specs are (blue 72 below) front -235/70/15 on an 8" rim with 3.5 BS rear - 31/12.5/15 on an 11" rim with 3.0 BS and a shortened rearend (could be a reverse rim but don't know?) Thanks |

Re: Owner of this truck?? And reverse rim?
I could have sworn I saved his build post somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. He was running a narrowed rear w/20x10's out back and 20x8's up front IIRC. They may even be 18x8's. I remember his build thread was named something about "the truck I bought from John", but I couldn't find it in search.
A "reverse rim" as I understand it just has more negative offset, ie. the center of the wheel is closer toward the center of the vehicle. Also called "deep dish."

Not much help to you but that black truck is perfect.
