I did SEARCH IT and found info but all seemed to be on aftermarket rims?

And I saw threads re: modifing air sensor, but not sure if people running Toyo 13.50s(which are 14" wide) are on stock rims, or if i need different backspace?

Thx

I saw those tires first hand on H2 Bully's rig in Moab. She ended up breaking the air ride sensor (it had been modified) The tires were mounted on stock rims. They looked HUGE. She went home and traded them in for 12.5" wide. You could mount them on a different rim, but imo, they're too wide for a non lifted truck. Good luck.

I have air suspension and 37's on my H2. They will fit until you flex and compress the rear. Then they are just a little wide and occasionally hit the sensor arm unless you reverse it. I am running those Toyo's currently on a 17in wheel with a -6mm offset which compensates spacing for the wider tire. Otherwise go with a 12.5 wide tire and you'll be fine on stock wheels.

Just say no to the toyo 13.50 with air ride and stock rims, they will f..ck your truck up. especially if you off road. :rant:

Don't know if this will help, but if memory serves, the backspacing is -4.5". You can calculate from there.

5.5"

So even if you do the sensor mod, the tires might still damage it if your wheel?

THREAD HIJACK! (Sorry dude! :) )
I understand that when increasing tire size, you will have changed your gear ratio to a "taller" setup, thus increasing the amount of time it needs to acceterate to the same point as it did with 35's.

But are there any other negative factors that ya'll might want to add? I wheel about 20% and the rest is getting the truck over mall curbs!

Is -6mm offset correct?,

what is size of the rims?

Iv'e gotta get something wider! These are 12.50s.

Anyone else running 13.50 w/air on aftermarket rims?

yeah but i'm still confused on the -6mm offset versus -5.5 stock offset.

seems like quite a bit of difference on the offset for a tire that is only 1.5" wider?
