kkirt1,
Looks good. Do you happen to know what the offset is on the AR Atlas 16X8s you have? The wheel I'm looking at right now has a -6mm offset and I'm not sure if it will bring the tire out as far as I want it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
DJer

American Racing Atlas backspace in the 16x8 and 5x135mm pattern for 97-99 Ford 2wd and 4wd is 4.5" and 0 offset. Your tires wont stick out.

Hope this may help you.

Flatlander, I really like those AR 136 wheels. I looked them up on the AR website, but didn't find if those are polished, or chrome. The MSRP of $190 that the website had makes me think polished, is that right? They also didn't have 16X8 as a size for that, they only had a 16X7 listed. Any info appreciated, but I dig your wheel/tire combo

Hey mudder, how was that Ford emblem done on the quarter panel of Ed's truck? Sticker or paint? Looks sweet!

My wheels are polished aluminum. It's a real pain in the *** to clean/polish them but they look good for a while after. I ended up with the cheapest price through a local Western Auto for $160 apiece mounted and balanced on the tires I already had. They are 16x8's. -wish I had 10's though

 

No rubbing here! This is the second setup I have had like this. The first was on a '97 SuperCab. It rubbed a little on the factory mud gaurds until I took my dremmel to them. I just shaved a little off the inside of the gaurd and walla... no more rubbing. Couldn't tell either.

I think it is a great setup. It really makes the truck look better IMHO! Go for it then lets see some pics!

On another note: I had some problems balancing the 305's on my last truck. This time I took it to a shop with a Hunter 9000 vibration control system... man do these tires ride nice now! It costs a little more, about $100, but I think it is worth it. I probably could have gotten it done for less but I was in a hurry. Well worth it at $100 though!

 

kkirt1, hey, was looking at the same wheels to buy just this week. was trying to figure the tire size to put on, but may have it now. do you have any rubbing problem with that size of tire, or did you have to raise tortion bars? any info would be appreciated. 1999 f150 supercab,dark toreador red,5.4 triton,chrome westin nerf bars,k&n air filter,bed liner,sony 6-disk cd player.

 

CR1,

It's just a sticker.

 

kkirt1, thank's for the info! that's what i am going to go with. as soon as i can i will scan some picks to post. thanks again!

 

Here's mine with a 3 inch body lift, 315's, and AR Bajas.
