I just want some pics of boggers to try and figure out what i want to do with my truck. I was thinkin of 35-14.50-16.5 bogger on eaither 12 or 14 wide rims what do you guys think?

Too wide for that size tire, 10" rim will work with those. Check my sig, I have 35x16x16.5s boggers on 12" wide wheels.

Why a 16.5 rim? They are all but obsolete and there is much more choice in either a 16 or 17 inch rim.

IMO I would go with a 17 because all the manufacturers are making the trucks now with a 17 inch rim or bigger.

Well i would get a 17 rim but the weld super singles that i want to run only come in 15 and 16.5

Really? That strikes me as odd. I can remember that more than 10 years ago I had a HELL of a time finding a 16.5 tire for my Ford E350 Super Wagon. Heck, 16.5 tires are hard to come by as reproduction/resto items.

Not to mention they don't have any boggers for 17" rim.

i think if your getting the 16.5 35's get the 16 wide ones, that i have. My rims are like 10s, but i would get 12's for the 16's

I just bought a set. 35x14.5x16.5 on a 16.5x12" rim. Don't rub at all with a 4 inch lift. We had them on my buddies 14" wide rims and it rubbed a little on the front fender. Love the tires. I'd go with the 12 inch rim if you are raised anymore than 4 inches and don't want to cut the fender.
