Re: WTB - 8 lug wheel... need ASAP

Jordan,
You mentioned in the GOG thread that you were running your spare. Is the spare wheel the right size? Do you need wheel and tire or just wheel?
In regards to the size...go read the numbers off the side wall. The 9.75 does not refer to the same thing that the 16.5 refers to. If it is a 9.75 then it is prolly a 16.5 X 9.75. If it's not a 16.5, it may be something like a 235/85 R16.

Hey there Longhorn! I just need the wheel, I think the tire is okay. Eventually I will need to replace all four (five with spare), but no $$ right now for that! so 16.5 is the OD of the rim and 9.75 the width I assume?

in any case, I'll check them out in a few hours and report back tonight.
