Re: Lowered and Rally wheel questions

And now a questions on tires..

What would be good tire size combos for either the 10's in the back and 8's in the front or the 8's in the back and 7's in the front?

I noticed alot of people run the BF Goodriches, so I am guessing I will probably go with those unless there is another brand that is good.

If your front end is lowered you might run into rubbing issues. My truck did as I had 2" drop spindles installed. I think it was the control arm that I was hitting on turns. Then again...others have had no issues with Ralleys Wheels on a lowered truck. Good Luck.

Re: Lowered and Rally wheel questions

I'm running 15x8 rallys on all four corners with a 4/6 drop.
I have no rubbing issues. But I wish I had 15x10s in the rear.
