35" KM2's are on!

picked up some 35x12.50-17 KM2's and got them put on today, they ride alot smoother than the wrangler mt/r's i had before and they don't rub one bit. I have an HBS 2.5" level and they wheels are 17x8 with 0 offset.

Yeah those should be 4.5 backspacing. Again those look sweet.

I would bet they are around 5 or so. My eight inch wide wheels with +25 are 5.43 bs. -12 is usually 4.5.
To the op, the new tires look great. Your truck is setup nicely.

How are you liking those compared to the MT/Rs? I still love mine (MT/Rs). How many miles did you get out of them? Any other details; share away please!

compared to the mt/r's these ride ALOT smoother, i was real surprised when i first drove around. i got roughly 45k miles out of the mt/r's they were almost brand new when i got the truck. road noise (which doesn't bother me honestly) is less than the mt/rs but theres still a slight hum

Every time I look up these rims in 17x8 with 0 offset, it says 4.5 backspacing. Website could be off. http://tireswheelsdirect.com/product...=344&wvid=5733

I guess with them being eight inches wide that could be true. The nine inch wide wheels are 4.5 bs with -12 offset. I stand corrected. Either way I love the look of those wheels.
