So my OME is in and my 235 7016 look way to small. I', going with the new Dura Trac tire but want Black rims. What I know I need 16's 5 on 4.5 but do I need 8's or 7's and what rims should I get. I know the crager soft 8's are nice any other ideas and I do not want to spend allot.

From all I've read since being on here, most guys will recommend 7", as they won't sit out as far, less rub. Also, most lifted libby tire sizes will fit/look better on 7" wheels. As for brands, cragar is always good, they have some different styles, also maybe try US wheels, check out summit racing and see what they have.

Need to get the proper backspacing to clear the brake calipers. IIRC 4.0 or 3.75.
