What do you guys reckon?

Post by DiscoDino »

most you guys know my set-up on the Disco:

OME 764s F & OME 762s R + 3/4" spacer (total ~2.5" lift)
2" body lift
Rangies Spares flares...

I've been running the 35"x10.5 ETs on 15x8" rims with the following specs:

Front: 4" out, 4" in
Rear: 3.5" out, 4.5" in
(there is a term for the above dimensions, but i get hazy since I am not sure whether it is backspacing, offset, or the likes, so simply the sizes)

Anyways, I am thinking of going with 15x10" steelies that are 6" out, 4" in for both front and rear, and eventaully moving to 36 SXs...

Do you guys think/know/guess whether or not this set-up will get to the flares?

Thanks.

Why would you want to run such a wide rim unless it was with a 14.5" wide tire? An 8" rim is perfect for a 12.5" wide tire.
