Re: What is the widest rim I can Fit
15x10 will work on the back. 4.5" backspacing will work, but 5" is more suitable for more of a drop.

Re: What is the widest rim I can Fit
Looks good, I think u got ur flip kit plates on the wrong side since its missing a bolt :P I just did a 5 front and 7 rear using similar looking notchs. Im gonna go with 6.5 BS 22 in x 9 in rims and rubber band tires LOL..
Found some rims just like those here locally, im thinkin of swoopin them up because they only want like 100 bucks with decent tires. Last edited by mrnize; 08-27-2010 at 11:27 PM. Reason: Spelling error |

Re: What is the widest rim I can Fit
is it a Fleetside or Stepside? I have a Stepside and run a 15 x 10 with 325x50x15
and have room for more... I think Stepsides may have more room ??? |
