Juan Perez Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 hey guys i have a 87 manche 4.0 2wd automatic and I'm in the market for a new set of wheels/rims. i found a set american eagle alloy 058's. they are 15x8, 5x4.5 bolt pattern and have 3.25 back spacing. my tires that I'm runnin with right now are 30x9.50 on stock wheels/rims. my question is will the new wheels fit ok on the tires and on the truck? any info will be appreciated. thanks :dunno:
CWLONGSHOT Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 They will fit and clear everything, but that BS is not needed or required.... CW
Eagle Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 They will stick out beyond the flares, they will hit the flares if the suspension compresses, and if your state requires that the bodywark cover the entire tread portion of the tire -- it won't. Stock backspacing is 5-1/4" and 30x9.50s work great with that ... just slight rubbing on the lower control arms at full steering lock. You'll be pushing the tires a full 2" farther outboard.
