Ive decided I want to change tire size since my 4.10's are making the motor labor a bit on the highway.
Id get a set of stock 17" takeoffs, but I want to run 315 or a little larger and thats a lot of sidewall flex. Anyone know a source for cheap 20" wheels? I dont mind steels so long as they look half decent. Im also looking for a lift kit, either a 3" or 4.5", probably the tuff country setup. Id need the extra space for the larger wheels.

 

JMO but cheap usually means cheap quality but not always. I would try EBAY. I don't think the rims would be the greatest expense but the tires.

 

What do you mean sidewall flex?? I am running 38" tires on a 16" rim and I have zero problems.

Some are pickier than others. I have a buddy that hated his 315s on 16" rims. He had them for a week and went back to 285s

I would suggest trying for some 18s, the rims should be a bit cheaper, and rubber will be a good bit less as well... And I will seccond the Ebay suggestion, as well as craigslist.

 

Hmmm I would think that'd be easy solved with a heavier ply tire.......I never noticed a difference going from 285's to 315's and now the 38's.....everything handles just the same. All I notice was a loss in power and that's it!

One would think... He does tow a lot, and sometimes heavy, I think that played some role in it.

 

Well I could see that I guess being a problem..

How much are you looking to give for the 20's?
