Yeah I figured they be too small. I haven't actually seen how much space is in there with the steel 15's. But I know any alloy rim is going to have a lot less clearance just do to alloys being larger
Not necessarily, some of the 15" rims I tried fit and some didn't. it would depend how the metal was bent where it came off the bead. There is only 1" difference in diameter which means only 1/2" difference on the radius. Anything that rubbed for me was because of the lower ball joint threads. 3 3/4" backspace seemed to take care of that and it pushed the wheels out about 1 1/2". I never was fond of rims with negative offset anyway.
I chose the Rock Krawler rims. They'll be put on when it's time for new tires, probable some time next summer.
