might help if you tell us 14"/15"/16"/17"/etc

I'll guess and go 15"

yunkyarddog · 03-27-2011, 10:43 PM

yes sorry nubb mistake the size i got is

15x9 rally wheels with 4in backspacing

**too much stuff** · 03-27-2011, 11:05 PM

I would guess the are 8" wide. Wheels are measured inside the lips. 9" would be an odd size, but possible i suppose. Sorry i can't tell you if they fit.

hotrodhomi · 03-27-2011, 11:10 PM

can you mount the wheel and get an idea? You may be able to use a straight edge to see how wide the tire can be in relationship to the wheel.

petey-pablo · 03-28-2011, 05:16 AM

They should fit with no problems I don't see why they would not work? I am running 15x10 in the rear and I think 15x9 in the front with no problems or I could be wrong and they are 15x8 in the front. With a 4 1/2 front x 4 drop in the rear.. I don't know about the backspacing though and my truck isn't
really slammed.

i too doubt 9" probally 8"

**special-K** · 03-28-2011, 07:11 AM

How much is your truck lowered? If the wheels are 9" they are custom made. The wheels that look like rallyes that I have seen made by other companies are offered in even sizes. How much did you pay? I can't imagine anyone selling custom wheels for what factory rallyes go for. Is that your truck in the picture? 8" rallyes will work with a 4/6 drop,if that is what you might have.

ONLY PAID 40$$ FOR THE SET with 4x4 center caps and beauty rings got two tires today 235-60-15 for the front look smaller than my 16's but once painted think they would look allright
