hey guys I'm getting and OME HD lift and i have 235/70/16 Bridgestone Dueler AT Revos and i was wondering how the 16x8 4" bs would work or if it would even fit on a 235.

Thanks for the help, if these don't fit i think i'm going to have to be a cookie cutter and get some soft 8's.

Just so you really consider it.... I have a picture of a 235/70 wrangler on a OME HD lifted Jeep... You want to go bigger... Even a 225/75 would fill the wells better if you wanted to keep a stock size+ then you can get a handful of MT's.

Oh nvm. 8" is too wide for that tire, move up to at least a 245 series.

Here is a thought save the $150 or so per wheel or $750 for all 5 and get some 245/75 BFG MT's or really any MT in that size and put them on the OE wheels
they will fit good ,less rub, hold a bead slightly better at lower psi
this will give you what you want and what you need

You want to save money
You want bigger tires
You need better traction
Again just a thought

If it was me I'd get the cheaper wheels, they are just going to get damaged if you actually go wheeling anyway, so why pay more for a wheel that will cost a bunch to replace or will make you cringe every time a rock bounces off your wheels. Again, save the money and get some bigger tires with the saved money and make sure they are some beefy MTs :twisted:

since you are going with a lift anyway.

why change wheels?
just pissing away $250+ on some thing you dont need
also the wheels you have now are lighter save some gas money

$250 is the cost to install a locker in the rear
That is money well spent

your right just some bigger tires after the lift. I always know where to get a good opinion.
