| Post subject: | final opinion double checking tires |
so, after much deliberation... I have decided to get 16x7 black rock 952 rims (yes, everyone and their third cousin has these but I like them) with 245/70/16 rims as an upgrade over my 225/75/16 stock. the 16x7s i want have a backspacing of 4 inches. http://www.morris4x4center.com/black-ro ... 71240.html I did some research on various wheel comparison websites and it seems as though I'll be losing a little bit of height but gaining width, which is what I want... I've seen a user by the name of Rytra on jeepforums.com use the same rims but his were on 235/70/16... I'm almost positive it will fit, if anything I'll have a slight bit of rub I imagine, possibly none (hopefully). What do you guys think? (I promise this is the last post like this lol) Thanks, DJ |

Have you lifted yet? If not yes they will rub 245-70-16s rub with stock wheels at times , with 4 inches of backspacing ( sitting the tire/ wheel out an inch more and increasing the arc it moves when turning get ready to do the pinch welds and massaging some other areas more than likley |

Right now I want to sit stock with some bigger tires and nicer wheels for a while and see how I like it. In terms of the rub, will it be okay enough for me to get home and do all that stuff? I mean my mechanic can mount the new tires and wheels, I'm sure I can tackle the pinch weld my self. |
