Looks killer Packrat! I agree, with what you're saying though- I put 15x7s all around mine and I wish I would have went a bit wider in the rear...

just something a bit different.
Hey tcb-1!
A few questions;
Did you need spacers/adapters for the wheels to fit?
What tire size(s) are you running with those rims?
Thanx
Dano

Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!

mine isn't slammed but i cut about 1 1/2 coils off all 4 springs.

it has 10s with a 4 or 4 1/2" backspace. it looks like they would rub but they don't.

you could mount some used tires on them and see.

Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!

yea they stick out a little--it's MT 29 12.50s on the back.

if you used some 255 70s or something similar so they'd stretch out they would probably work.

Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!

Here's mine, but i need to get some new tires on them so they will look right. These are just for moving the truck around for now.. Going to be putting some 295 drag radials on the back and some 225/70/15's up front...
