Wheel/Tire Tech Thread

[Bair]

A good buddy of ours here at the shop runs proxes on a 18x12 with no issues. They hook good at the track, he daily drives it, and he has even hooked to the sled with them. I have seen 420s on 20x12s stretched as well and they look damn good to me, that would be my choice as I favor the 420 more than the proxes.

I think it was you that had pictures of a tire being pre-stretched with 2x4's.LOL Makes me think anything is possible!!

noted - thinking about 420s on mine LOL

What are you waiting for??? Do it.

Yeah that was me. Haha we have done it that way just to make it a little easier 2 cheetahs also do wonders.

Why?

I really don't wanna lift it I like the lower look but I don't wanna be stuck running 33s so ill prolly just be stuck running a 4" lift

Should fit fine. Might have some inner fender to trim or pull back

i thought i might have some trimming to do on the rear. I have a custom bumper on the front, so I won't have to worry about hitting that up front

I saw some 20x12 setups with stock ride height on here. What about a tire for a 22x11 with 0 offset/5.5" backspacing, and a 22x12 with -40 offset/5" backspacing for a 2002 f250 4x4 with stock front ride height and no rear block?

2.5 ready lift
5" total rear
20x10 Fuel Throttle -12

What do you like better black or chrome?

 

[05wh250]

Chrome. I've decided on moto metal 955's now because i was told everything else i like is on backorder

 

[bigugly78cj5]

So my truck needs tires, i have a 2006 cc king ranch 4x4 with no kind of lift. im going to be doing a 2.5 leveling kit from Newton lifts and 4 inch blocks in the back. now my question....


Do yall think some 20x12 -44mm bs 4.77 moto metal wheels with a 305/55r20 tire would fit my truck? if so if not and why? im okay if i have to do some minor trimming.... also if you have other tire size suggestions that would work better, please let me know

 

[MINK]

^ Yes they will fit and look awesome - I regret selling mine.

 

[Agjake11]

Tire is too small I run that size at stock height.

 

[smokedout250]

Yup they will fit. They do look small to me but its all the taller you can go... I'm at the very max for height and width and I'm running 20x10 on -24mm offset with 35x12.50 toyos

thanks for the replies..... out of curiosity, what would be the next biggest tire? the 305-55 is around a 32-33 inch tire, is there a metric equilivent to a 34 inch tire? i know there is the 35x12.50 buti feel thats going to be way to big to run these wheels with....

 

[05wh250]

My 315's on 17x9's measure at 34.5 tall according to an online calculator.

35s and 12 wide wheels won't work.... I'm running 10 wide and I barely clear....
