what rim for 38s and GU *found the answer*

Post by j-top paj »

need some info...

i currently have 35x12.5s (BFG muddies) on 15x8 rims with cruiser offset and have never had a problem.

i have run 37x13.5 (claws) on 15x10 rims (unsure of the offset) and only had minor scrubbing on the guards (outer tire slightly scrubbed on the inner of the flare/sill but a hammer easily sorted that)

also have run 38x12.5 swampers on 15x8 rims (unsure of offset again :oops: :roll: ) and they were the same as the claws..



im looking for a set of rims for my 38s but unsure of what offset i should go :?
i can get a set of 15x7.5s for cheap but they are a different offset to the cruisers... (they are about 22mm "shallower" than the cruisers)


any ideas?
