9.5'' wide wheels

Hey what's up fellas?? I know that there are some people on this board that are running 9.5'' wheels out back but, I was wondering if anyone was or is running 9.5'' wide rims up front, and if so, what b/s do they have. Thanks in advance
-Joe

Re: 9.5'' wide wheels

Had some 9.5 in tt2's was thinking about putting on front with 5.5 bs'ing. But didnt . Have 8 in on now with 5.5 bs'ing & there is possibly 1-1.5 in more to the outside . So do the math , it would be close with 5.5 bs'ing > probably 6 in would work well .

Re: 9.5'' wide wheels

I didn't look it up to be specific, but it's documented if you want to find his info. Bruiser has 15x10" rallies on the front of his Blazer. I THINK they have 5.5" of backspacing.
