Exclamation how about this set up

how does this set up sound to everyone, 265/75/16 BFGoodrich All Terrain Tires set up on 16x8 Mickey Thompson with a negative 19mm offset


i would go for the 285/75 but does anyone think they would rub or will they fill up the wheel well too much, because i dont want it to look stuffed,

now for Wandell, i know u have urs on 16x10's, and u had to trim the front valance do you think it would be a big difference with the 16x8's?

so anyways, thanks to everyone, ill talk to you later

man,if it is four wheel drive,I would go bigger than 265.That the factory size.285 on 16-10 will only scrub on the plastic spoiler and that will not take much trimming.

Cool

yeah true, but i dont want to affect the gas mileage and the speed of the truck , so will the 285's do that, and i dont want to trim the valance or tighten the torsion bars, i guess you can say this is a temporary look until a few years when i go for a lift kit and big effin tires and not drive the truck so much, i just really want the all terrain tires(which i should have gotten earlier) and the rims with a nice decent offset so it has a sort of offroad appearance.

I barely had to trim when I went to 16x10's so I doubt you will have to trim any with 16x8's. Also, keep in mind you can fit a larger tire on a 16x10 when you lift your truck. You may not want to buy another set of wheels when you do install a lift.
