I'm confused to the point of your original post, though. You say they stick out too far and you're worried about throwing rocks onto your boat. Then you ask for pics. How will pics of other people's tires help your rock situation? Are you trying to get an idea of the specs of your wheel?


But, here and especially here.
Didnt sense the sarcasim sorry. I know it has alot to do with the offset of the wheels I have on my truck which I havent found out what they are yet. I know if I get a smaller tire then what is on there then I can kinda see what sticks out and what doesnt. But I know I wanna go with a toyo open country A/T

Turlock and they are Cheyenne (sp) 6 dont know the correct spelling. They are actually coming de chromed wish Weld was still in buisness. My next step will be to probably get them re chromed. I have never seen this happen before on a rim and believe me I have had my share of trucks.

Or you can go on Craigslist and pick up a set of OEM rims, mount the tires, sell your Welds to cover you costs and call it a day.
Give me your Diamos and come get these Welds then haha

Damn, Weld rims are pretty expensive. If I paid that much for rims and the chrome flaked I would be pissed. Luckily you bought the truck with them on.

I dont really like the Cheyenne pattern. I wish my tires stuck out farther, if you had the chrome 18x10 Incubus Brawns I would trade you straight up! (my rims are 18x9 with 5.4" backspacing).

Yea like you said welds are expensive I wouldnt have bought them I would have went with a KMC probably. Im not a fan of the Cheyennes either but like you said they came on the truck Im not complaining.To be honest with you I cant even tell what kind of lift is on this thing. Of course I dont have any pictures of it or I would post it so someone could take a guess.

I had an 05 supercrew fx4 I lifted with a fabtech and did some 18's with toyo open countrys a/t had it for 8 months dumped a bunch of money into it lift wheels tires nice upper and lower perimiter grills jl sub under the rear seat and traded it in for my 06 dodge mega cab then I dumped a bunch of money into one of those 10k to be exact and sold it for what i owed and lost my rear so I deciced i wasnt gonna buy anything new anymore haha.

I have the Toyo Open Country MT's in 33x12.50x20... I have 20x9 wheels with 5.71" backspacing and iIthink they stick out just enough - not too much but more than stock...

Ha, my Diamo's have 4.5" of backspace and are a 10" wide rim! But what about the thought of getting the mudflaps? I have a 20' FourWinns and rather than get new tires and/or rims, the mud flap idea is the cheapest and easiest route to go. Plus, they're removable.

I know I'm an idiot, but what the hell is back-spacing, guys?

Here's my 35x11.5 Toyo AT's on 9" wheels. It had 33x12.5's on it when I bought it and I diddn't like how far they stuck out so I went taller and narrower. It ended up just the way I like.
