i did 295 25 22 a few weeks ago 20/22 but if your not bagged its gonna look ghetto

DROPT@BIRTH · 08-31-2003, 05:59 PM

Can I bag the front with 18x9, 245 40 18 and still lay out? I think the bs is 5.0 or 5.5?

you'll be about 2" from laying, you'll have to relocate the inner fenders. I have 235/40 18's and I'm about 1.75" from laying

DROPT@BIRTH · 09-01-2003, 11:25 AM

will it be resting on the inner wells? is this the only thing that will keep me from laying out?

DimeTime · 09-01-2003, 12:49 PM

I'm on my bumpstops, but if I take those out I'll be 1/4" closer to the ground, but on my inner fenders

DROPT@BIRTH · 09-01-2003, 01:51 PM

what size bags you runnin?

DimeTime · 09-01-2003, 01:53 PM

slam RS62's, w/ FBImini cups

BlazerLT · 09-03-2003, 02:05 AM

comon guys, how about something like this for us 4x4 blazer owners.

Kinda missing most of us here.

DROPTSBLAZE · 09-04-2003, 08:50 PM

Would 20x8.5 be too wide for a 'bagged setup ? If not what backspacing would you need to be able to tuck the wheels in the fenders ?

N2O NOMA · 09-04-2003, 10:12 PM

20x8.5 ive done on abagged one 4.75 is ideal bs on them and 245 35 20

onequickv8s10 · 09-05-2003, 09:15 AM

what about a pair of 14x7 with a 3.75 backspacing. going on the front with a 5 in drop. if they do work, what size tire would be good? i found a pair of weld pro stars for 120 brand new....but theyre 14". dunno how thrilled i am about that.

my_jimmy · 09-12-2003, 06:29 PM

Does anyone know if an 18x9 wheel will fit up front in a first gen Jimmy?

N2O NOMA · 09-12-2003, 07:26 PM

yah it fits but will rub badd

XTREMEon20s · 09-17-2003, 10:19 PM

i know i pm u this question tony but the guy at boyd told me 5.75inch backspacing out back it a 20x10 wheel is this ok or what..??

anALLSHOx · 09-18-2003, 01:15 PM

wow a lot of info, but how tall are the stock xtreme wheels. 255/55/16? i believe and if i got 245/40/20 or 245/35/20 how much of a difference that would be

-i'm bagged up front with jasons cups and 2600's w/2" drop spindles... it lays kit in front right now but how close would it be when i try to lay it out on the 20's?

N2O NOMA · 09-18-2003, 04:27 PM

LOL 245 40 20 IS 27.7 inches tall over 1.5 inches taller than the stock x wheels.

245 35 20 is 26.8 inches tall which is 3/4 of a inch taller than your stock x tires

anALLSHOx · 09-19-2003, 12:26 PM

3/4 of an inch aint that bad, thanks tony- u da man!

aj25236 · 09-25-2003, 01:21 PM

i have 18's on my stock setup right now. id like to drop at least 3 in the back and 2 in the front, but id like to get 20's. can i just throw 20's on a stock setup, and if i was to drop 3/4 could i fit 20's? if not, how much could i drop it with 20's

SKiZZ · 09-25-2003, 03:47 PM

I have a 1998 ZQ8 Sportside (Non-Extreme). I was looking at getting 18"s. I dont think I'll ever get bags, but i'd like to lower it some more. Spindles in the front. Not sure how for the back. Are blocks best? I want a nice ride like stock also. I would like for the rims to tuck though. Thanks for the info.

Rhotpursuit · 09-26-2003, 09:49 PM

I could really use some help here...I have checked out your chart and made wheel tire selections according to your but wanted to double check becase of the already lower stance of the SS. Any rim/tire size and b.s. recomendations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Rick

Current set up:

96 SS
Belltech 2" spindles up front
2" blocks out back ( soon to be 3")
no bags

Proposed setup"

In front 17x8 Boyd Coddington Blaster 5
245-45-17 Goodyear Eagle HP Ultra Plus

lwrdanu · 09-29-2003, 01:15 PM

i have a 95 dime with a 3 1/2 body drop and it's bagged. I want to know how big I can go on rims & tires and still lay body. I'm rockin some 16" KMC's right know but want to go to at least 18's. Any advice. Thanks for your time and letting me pick your brain

chevyman350 · 10-06-2003, 11:31 PM

I want to know if 17X8 rims will fit on my truck with DJM 3" lower control arms. If so what back spacing, & what size tire will fit with out rubbing?

Will any larger 17" rims fit with tires fit with what backspacing and tire size and not rub.

Thanks!

PushinDimes · 10-12-2003, 03:52 PM

Hey whats goin on can you tell me if i did 20x8.5 on the front and back of my 2001 s10and did a 3 front 4 back drop would i rub really bad...or should i just go with 18's?

GLHTurbo · 10-15-2003, 10:41 AM

1992 S-10 Pickup 2WD

4/5 Drop

Factory 14" "5-star" Steel Rims - currently with factory size 205-70-14.

What's ideal for the 4/5?

alanq64 · 10-20-2003, 05:48 PM

What will it take to mount these on a 91 s10? I'll be dropping it 3-4 or maybe 4-5. Can't go too low as we have bumpy roads.

BadAssBowtie · 10-23-2003, 03:38 PM

4x4 blazer - stock height - the guy bought some 18's for it, i'm not sure of the backspacing, but we test fit them and they dont hit. what size tire is acceptable? 255-55-18's came with it, but those scrub at 1/4 turn. he wants the speedo to be the same, and he doesnt want to have to lift the front any. what would you suggest?

johnster0228 · 10-27-2003, 02:20 AM

what tire would work for a 4/5 with 18x8.5 in the fron and rear???

PurpleSonoma · 10-30-2003, 07:49 PM

I am going to be bagging soon....I know my 18x9s wont fit, so I am going to go back to my stock ZQ8 rims. What tire should I get for them.

thanx

S10xDrift · 11-06-2003, 05:56 PM

what about offset on a 4/5 inch drop with 18's? +14mm offset?

CustomS10 · 11-24-2003, 07:33 PM

3/4 drop

17"s front and back

17x7 up front with a 4 1/2 bs and the same for the back?

NORCAL SS · 12-19-2003, 08:46 AM

BlessedHellride · 12-22-2003, 05:52 PM

i have a 99 s10 x-cab with 2 in. spindles and 1 in. springs (springs actually lowered it about 1 1/2 - 1 3/4 in.). im running 15 in. rims. whats the widest tire i can put on the front.

NORCAL SS · 12-22-2003, 07:18 PM

CandyPaintOn22z · 12-30-2003, 01:28 AM

Dunno i got a 99 jimmy lowered 2 inches all the way around and i'm on 22's on 30 seris tires

1BAS-10 · 12-30-2003, 02:02 PM

Hello, I have a 94 S-10 single cab, stock everything, what size tires would i need for it not to rub with 18s

CastawayRay · 01-15-2004, 02:01 AM

my question is fairly simple (I THINK!!!!)

I found a calculator site that did speedometer corrections for different tire combinations (ill post it if yall want) and anyway, when using the 205 75 15 Paws as a reference, a comparable tire in size diameter-wise is a 255 60 15

Question -

I have a 2 wd LS with those "twisted Cragar" rims, can it handle a two inch wider tire? the paws look too small on the rims, the truck needs more beef on the road <G>

ir8st8 · 01-15-2004, 10:36 AM

96 sonoma- wanna put 17x7.5 with 4.2 inches of back space in front and 20 x 10 with 4.9
