| Post subject: | Going To Drop Down To 16" Wheels |
I'm lifted with the Franky, pinch weld pounded & NO plastic inner fenders in the front. What size of rim (back space etc.) and tires do I want to get. The tire height I want is as close to, but not under, 31". When these tires wear out I'll get 32's and 4:10's. I would like to go with Soft 8's or the Unique Series 297 (same as soft 8's, but cheaper). Terry |

Go with some black steelies that are 16x7 with 4" or 4.5" of BS.Then you can mount 265/70's,which are 31".If you want really aggresive tires some companies do make 31x9.50x16 tires. |

Terry If you want just a tad higher try the Trxus MT's in the 265/75 size,they are 31.9" tall mounted on a 7" rim.The Trxus are cheaper and just as good as the MT/R's,better in mud but a little worse in the rocks(big rocks,car sized ones). |

I want to stay close to 31" until I can get the gears. I was looking at the Distination M/T, Dunlop Radial Rover R/T and the MTR's. That was when I was going to go 31.9". I'll have to look at the Trux though. Terry |
