Airrun2002 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 (edited) Do you think these wheels would look good on my 95 silver pathy? With some 31" mud tires of course. Edited April 13, 2005 by Airrun2002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repack Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 How wide are they? I think that anything over 7" wide will cause the tire to rub. But they look cool I guess. Maybe a little too clse to the look of a stock Chevy wheel though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airrun2002 Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 (edited) Oh, and how would a 9.5" wide tire fit on a 9" wide wheel? Please help me guys. Here is the ones i want to buy: American Racing Wheels He had them on a Nissan truck not sure if it was a hardbody but he said it was 2x4 do you guys think they will work on my 4x4?

Precise1 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I think they look fine, but without the right backspacing, adjusting steering stops, a lift and maybe fender trimming, I think you will have some rub-a-dub. While we all know 31" tires fit fine, 9" seems a lot for the space. I'm thinking they will 'swing wide' when you turn the wheel. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airrun2002 Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 I have the 3" jgc lift. I just want to know if 9.5" tires will work with the 9" rims? They look like they have a pretty low b/s i tried to explain to the guys so he could measure the b/s. Either that or im getting these: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Hehehe.. The rims in the first pic that are on the Chevy... hehe.. I had those EXACT same rims on my '92 S-10 (I have a thing for 1992 year vehicles...)..they looked tight. I have 15x8 Chevy rims on my Pathy.. JGC lift..cranked torsion bars with 255/70/15's on it with no rubbing. (I have been lazy and not put on my 31's yet) ok.. I had an aftermarket fender on the PS..so I took the sawzall to it..... BUT! The DS didn't rub. Shame you don't have a program like mine where you could insert the pic of the rim on yer Pathy.. if you have a Les Schwab tires around you..they have a computer where you can pick your vehicle and rim and it will show what it looks like on the truck.. pretty cool really.... -bounce- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
