I'm thinking they'll be too wide and rub pretty bad. The stockers are 7.5" wide w/ 5" backspacing IIRC. You should probably look at 8" or 9" rims.

I could be wrong about the stock specs though.

I know on the 8" rims the BS is usually 4.5". So I guess with the 9" rim, 4" BS might be okay.

Which tires are you getting?

well i called 4 wheel parts and told them that i was looking for some steel rims, told them i was looking for a 16 and they said these would fit

16x8 Size 6x5.5 Bolt Pattern 4.25" backspacing

what do you think? will these work, i thinking about just buying one and testing it out. hell, its only 74.99 a wheel.

this is what they look like,

reason im looking at these, is because a friend of mine has some super swampers lying around and they are 35's.

Should work. The tires are gonna stick out a bit. Hope you don't mind mud on your door handles. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

And of course, you know you are required by Elcova law to post pics once they're mounted.

Most of the tire sites will show a minimum rim width in the specs.
