im planning on buying a rize 8 inch within the next few days and im pretty broke *** and was wondering if you can put stock rims with the lift?

and i need to buy brake line extensions..... with new driveshaft.......

also if i could put 37x12.5r18 bfg allterrains..... on them ?

anything will be helpful

 

How you like the look?





You probably will need offset wheels. Extensions come with the kit. The driveshaft does not need to be replaced.

 

That looks a little goofy for sure, but a with a set of 37x12.50's it would look great. You should be fine with the 37x12.50's on the OEM wheels untill you can get some nice wheels.

 

ummmmm...dont know how wide stock rims are....but I HIGHLY doubt they are even close to being rated for 12.5 in wide tires.....

i would think that's a major safety concern....I wouldn't do it

 

The OEM wheels are 7.5 inches wide, which is 1/2 inch narrower than most tire manufacturers recommend for a 12.50 inch wide tire. However, several members here and at FTW have run 12.50 inch wide tires on their OEM wheels for 10's of thousands of miles with no problems.

 

ya im planning on buying cheap hankook mt's for now 37/1250-18 for now till i can save some money and buy the rims and wheels i want........ but some of you are driving with stock driveshaft safely? no probs? or is that a must do with kit?

 

agreed...

 

I needed a new driveshaft. A lot of people with the Rize have had no problems though. My truck shook so bad that it was causing the seal to become distorted on the transfer case end and it'd cause transmission fluid to leak out. After I got my new driveshaft, I don't have any problems. The seal even worked itself back normal and no more leaking. 12.50s will fit fine on the stock 7.5" wheels. A lot of people have been even running 13.0s on stock wheels. I know people personally and they haven't had any problem. Run the correct psi in your tires and you'll be fine.


Tell my truck that. .

 

but will i be kewl for a month till i save to change that?

 

I'd say so, you might not even have a problem. I'd wait to see first before doing anything. I'd probally still change it for the fact that the stock driveshaft will stick 2 inches father out of the transfer case than stock.

 

No one should ever question wandell when it comes to wheels/suspension/lifts. He is the guru, from what I hear.

 

i emailed rize with these questions and still no answer been over a week now..

why i posted this otherwise i wouldve had my answers already

 

Thats strange. Rize has always returned my emails in about a day or two.
