Tire-Wheel Question

[interscope8]

Im about 2 weeks away from buying some 15x10s Ion alloys from a member over on MyST. They aren't a 5x4.5's... so Ill be getting adapters for them, but will 15x10's fit ok on the trac?

Also, Im aiming for 33" tires, what recommended sizes do you guys have? Im bad with tire/ wheel sizes...

Whats the backspacing? I'm running 15x10's with 4" bs on 33x13.50 but id recommend 33x12.50 for less cutting involved. I dont have spacers either just did ALOT of cutting and still need to do much much more.

Alloy Ion Wheels
174-5161B
Description: Ion/174
Size: 15 x 10
PCD: 5 x 120.65
Offset: -38mm
Finish: Black/M. Lip
Cap: C101712
That's the info i was given by the seller. It's in a chevy bolt pattern tho, so with adapters (assuming they'd act as spaceds) I hope they clear my wheel well.

Nope, they'll be pushed out too far. Plus you'll be putting too much stress on the frontend parts with a 10" wide wheel and adapters. You'd have to cut a ton of plastic and toeboard off and will still have rubbing issues. Who are you getting them from over there? I'd keep looking. JMO...

 

[interscope8]

Well dang, these were really cheap... guess Ill keep looking and if I cant find anything its Black Cragers like EVERYONE else haha

I don't have black Cragars. I have black Pro Comps, lol.

I think you could make this work but you won't be excited about the way to do that. I agree and would pass on these.

Hugh, I bet th same company makes the Soft 8's and Pro Comp's and just relabel them.

Should i go with the Nitto Terra Grappler 265/70/18's or the nitto trail Grappler tires for my 4x2 sport trac???? i have read the trails are better over all but wanting to see if anyone had any thoughts???

 

[MidnightRebel07]

I'd get the trail grapplers out of the two. I have GoodYear DuraTrac's now...

Don't get the Cragers!

Don't get the Cragers!

Cant afford anything else im either paying extra for tires and rolling stock and getting them powder coated by a family friend, or Im getting Crager V-5s for the sake of not having soft 8s
