For some reason this thread doesn't seem to be very popular.......why not?!?
Could anyone tell me if I'll be able to fit a 31x10.50R15 tyre on my D22 using a 15"x8" (+6mm offset, 4-3/4" back spacing) wheel with no suspension mods (i.e. with no rubbing)? I'm hoping the "+" offset possibly lets...
Hmmmmm. Well I see that Black Rock makes a fairly light weight 15"x8" steel wheel with a +6mm offset and 4-3/4" back spacing (Black Rock Part# 905586047).
Now everyone confirms on numerous threads in this forum that you can fit a 16"x7" wheel with a 265/70R16 tyre with no rubbing with a stock...
Okay now you've got me thinking again. You say that you're going with a 15" wheel in the future. What width and offset will that wheel be to clear the brake caliper?
Also what tyre would you comfortably fit with that wheel with an unmodified suspension set-up? A 31x10.50R15 size?
Thanks!
I've just figured out how to upload pics to my garage. Please take a look at my stock wheels, they seem to look just like yours (8-spoke) except mine are only 6" wide. Is the +44mm offset you speak of stamped on your wheels?
You're right, those tyres in your pic don't look too skinny at all. What size are the rims in the pic? They look like the stock 16"x6" 8-spoke steel wheels I currently have, except painted black.
Thanks for the great input guys.
My gut tells me that the 16"x8" wheel (0mm offset, 4-7/16" back spacing) and a 265/70R16 All-Terrain tyre will fit well with no rubbing.
And even though I'll go with the bigger sized combo of 16"x8" Mickey Thompson Classic II wheel (21 lbs) and P265/70R16 Toyo...
Hey, thanks for the response 04SilverSTR. Lots of good info on the forum.
Just to recap, my D22 came with narrow 16"x6" wheels and 205R16C-8PR tyres from the factory. I've reconsidered going with the 245/75R16 Kumho KL71 MT's as it would make more sense for me to go with either BFG or Toyo...
Okay, would I be able to fit a 16"x8" wheel (-22mm offset, 3-5/8" back spacing) with 265/70R16 AT tyre on my D22 without any rubbing (no lift kit installed)?
Are you using a 16"x7" or 16"x8" wheel to mount the 265/75?
I would like to use a 16"x8" with 265/75 tyres on my D22 without a a lift kit but rubbing seems to be a an issue.
Hi,
I was wondering whether I would experience any rubbing issues if I went with 16"x7" wheels (0mm offset, 4" back spacing, 6x5.5" bolt pattern) combined with 245/75R16 Kumho KL71 Road Venture MT tyres on my 3.2L non-turbo D22 4x4 Frontier as per my avatar pic? It currently has the 16"x6"...
