That looks really good!!

Bump. This needs an update.

 

[HINZ28]

I decided to ditch the ground hawgs instead of grove them oh like I wanted. I picked up a set of 39.5/13.5/16 super swamper IROKs
They came with some 5 lug 5x135mm wheels.......but that won't fit a Dana 60?

Wasn't sure how these were gona work and still not sure but I picked up some NBS 2500hd aluminum wheels for 100$ with some 285 tires worth selling
Wheels are kinda nasty but I'll clean em all up. Here's the start to one

 

[82355]

Have you bolted one up yet? Might be a tight fit.

[Deuling]

Hells yah. Those look nice

Yah looks like a big difference in offset.

 

[79HeavyChevy]

Wish you were closer, I know a several guys here including myself that would love to have those ground hawgs.

 

[y5mgisi]

If the hogs cleared, i bet these will too.

 

[Deuling]

Mount those babies up!

Ive actually had the tall and skinny tire combo grow on me... I think it will look better than the wide groundhawgs.

 

[78SWB]

Me too

The Hawgs are shorter and were on a rim with much less back spacing.

Tight fit to where? Frame?
Isn't john running some 6" wide wheels on his with same size tires?

If all else I buy spacers I guess

 

[82355]

Yeah, I was just curious if they would rub on the frame, suspension, etc.

Mine has 2" more lift and rubs on the rear of the front fender with the axle moved forward.

 

[muddysub]

those are some of my favorite wheels, i want a set bad. that should look good, even if you do need to run a spacer to clear everything.

 

[HINZ28]

Well I test fit them last night they work. Fenders may need some more trimming tho. We will see after a flex test. It's partly cause I'm used to the wide hawgs but these are skinny. I'll end up running a 1.5" spacer and maybe 2" in the rear just so it looks normal

 

[HINZ28]

Test fit
