should i buy 36" goodyear rt's on h1 rims?

[chevyguy82]

i found these tires and wheels on craigslist tonight. http://topeka.craigslist.org/pts/1956000338.html
i am considering the 36's with hummer beadlock rims. will i be able to just put them directly on my truck. i have 3/4 tons, 10 bolt up front and full floater 14 bolt in the rear. how far will these stick in the wheel wells? right now i have 35" bfg m/t with 15x10 eaton wheels with maybe 500 miles. i just want beadlocks. are these tires and rims worth it?

Good deal, but the H1 rims have LOTS of backspacing (i.e. they will be VERY narrow, the tire will be close to the frame and steering components etc.)

To be honest, I'm not even sure they'll bolt up because of clearance with the tie rod ends etc. The only people I've seen run them are using dually D60's because their wheel mounting surface is so much wider.

i've been researching more and think i will pass. just seems like a lot of work just to get beadlocks and 1" taller tire that i don't really want. i figured it was a really good deal but i'm sure something else will pop up.

I don't think there is the right taper on the backside of the wheel for the lugs to seat, far from safe.

they fit, just isnt the best. the 37s set of 5 for 400 is a deal.

you can get the 37s with brand new (95% or better) for 75 a piece from a guy down by whitchititty. He also sells re-centered wheels. The 37s are the better design, but neither design is very good in mud or offroading, or snow.
