New rims & tires :)

Raej · 02-13-2013, 02:52 PM

From the day I got my truck I couldn't wait to get new rims & bigger tires, today I finally got them on

31x10.5r15s -13 Offset or about 4" backspacing

A little mockup

Poke before

Poke after ( love it, some may say excessive, im digging it big time )

Lookin' WIIIIIDE

0 Rubbing

Ignore my ugly 9 year old lugs, they sent me chrome ones but they sent me 1/2 instead of 12mm .. an honest mistake, the new ones are on the way

I am ecstatic with my purchase, and I can't wait for things to warm up (It's raining today, SOOON!!)to get started on all my other mods

Thanks to clutch for assuring me I would be okay on sizing when many others told me it wouldn't fit. :thumbsup:

Looks killer!

Looks very nice. Are you rubbing on full lock?

08Canyon · 02-13-2013, 05:00 PM

Those don't look quite like a 4" offset? Is that what they really are? 4" offset on a Z85 seems to look wider than that. That looks similar to mind and I'm about 5" offset.

They're -13 Offset, or about 3.9x BS. on a 8 inch wide rim

Thanks dude im loving it too, im throwing some serious chunks though so I gotta get some flares sooner than later.
Yeah Kanati/Greenball is the maker of the tire, a fairly new tire to the market so should be interesting on seeing how long they last.

That's stock size for a z71 I believe, my z85 came with 235s

Yeah, looking to get z71 flares colourmatched, unfortunately my wreckers doesnt have any so i'm looking at ordering these ones..

12498938 Chevy Colorado 2009 2012 Front and Rear Fender Flares Red | eBay

A bit hesitant because even though it says they're oem, it's eBay and i don't want to get flares with a shit paint job..

n0scuc0 · 02-13-2013, 05:42 PM

look sick man

08Canyon · 02-13-2013, 06:26 PM

Mine throw debris up at the body all the time. I'm rolling on Duratrac so the side lugs hae a healthy appetite for small stuff on the ground and I am apparently tucked an inch more than you are.

At least mine is white and doesn't show as much like the red is going to.

Yeah it's not too awful or anything, but I am definitely throwing more than I should be, i'm guessing if a cop was behind me in slushy weather he wouldn't be very happy.

Not worried about the paint, I'm going to run this poor thing into the ground anyways.
