My buddy has a full size layin frame on 24's with 25 series tires and he hasn't had a problem with the wheels gettin effed up yet, but its not a daily driver either. He does drive it about every weekend though. Just have to be careful and dodge holes and stuff

he did say the rims were the wrong offset, and it looks like he might need to trim out some of the inner fender lip(idk the name) but just my .02

vortec97 · 05-26-2008, 10:30 AM
