Eagle Rims

What do you all think of these rims for putting BFG AT 31x10.5R15 on them??

What backspacing and bolt pattern would I need? I will have shackles and TT if that matters.

Also, would I be better to just keep my stock 15x7 tear drop rims?? It could save me 300 bucks ya know?

What to do!!!???

Those tires will fit fine on your stock rims. It all depends on what look you want.I like those rims. Id go with them if you can afford it. I think it will add to your look and you will be happier.

 

[Redrig]

I think with those rims a 3.75 or 4" backspacing is what you want.

Them are the same rims i have on my rig It sucks keeping them clean

Stay out of the mud!!! J/k

 

[MattStarr]

88~ you mean brake dust or mud or what....

My stock alloys stay relatively clean. I like not having to shine them all the time...

So whats your suggestion?

 

[88vert]

I am a clean freak so mine have to shine.When they are all cleaned up they really set the ex off.If you can get a good deal I say go for it

 

[MattStarr]

Well, I am like you, mine gotta stay clean.... I clean the X atleast once a week. If you dont mind me asking, what did you pay for yours?? is 285 shipped a good deal?

 

[88vert]

Mine were on the truck when I bought it I think 285 shipped is a great deal What are you going to use for tires?

 

[88vert]

You could always sell your stock rims and cut the price in half Or you could keep your stock wheels and paint the teardrops

 

[MattStarr]

My original post says.... BFG at's 31's

just not sure if i wanna keep the stockers and save some money

 

[MattStarr]

True, i never thought about selling the stock ones... i wonder how much i could get for them?

 

[88vert]

Second generation teardrops look awesome on a first gen ex

 

[MattStarr]

What, you wanna buy em I have a 2nd gen.

I dont know what to do.

 

[88vert]

Thats a picture of my old ex

 

[MattStarr]

Thats very pretty...

Since these new rims would be an inch wider than my stock ones.. would I run into any problems with rubbing??

 

[88vert]

You should be alright

FYI

I don't know if you already have the tires or what, but 4 wheel parts has a combo package with the 589's and the BFG's you like mounted and all that for about $950....you might want to check into that.

 

[MattStarr]

bhults..... do you know if that includes shipping?

 

[88vert]
