Default Re: Need Help Tirers Very new to this site

These wheels are the reason I waited so long for them. The wheel sits close to stock. These 35 12.50 17 tires can be turned at full lock (even while aired down) without hitting any part of the truck...even when flexed, but I did level out the front end. I can only kiss the top front of the rear wheel well...but that was barely and while bouncing when flexing the truck. If you go with a 33" tire you'll be good to go. If you go 35" tire with these rims, you will rub.

Wheel specs:
manufact. KMC XD
model # XD798 Matte black Addict
17 x 9 wheel
+ 18 offset
5.71 back space

Tire specs:

Manufact. Procomp Extreme MT
size 35 12.50 17


In all honesty, this wheel/tire package rides better/smoother than the stock 33's or the bfg at 35" I had on. I run the tires at 36psi. to 39psi for every day driving. I aired down to 14spi when wheeling without the bead coming off on the slick rock trails. I think I could have gone to 12 but didn't wnat to push it.

The same specs are avail in an 18 x 9 and 20 x 9 for those looking to go bigger. There are no 16" rims available in this wheel.
Also, the rim is available in different "colors" all black, or black with a machined face. you can also pull those silver bolt looking things out if you prefer not to have them/ or damage them..
