what kind of rims are you running?

[dsmd58]

i want to replace my 15' rims with 16's. im looking for ideas, i have explored the h1's but i think it entails too much to make them work.

do you guys have any pics of what you are running or OE wheels i can pick up at the jy that would work? i dont want a "pretty" wheel, cause im more than likely going to paint it black or OD green.

Are you looking for 6 lugs or 8?

If I remember right someone on here was using stock chevy express van wheels painted flat black. They looked good, and shouldn't be too expensive

8....d60 14blt sf rear...do you think they will still work even with a 12-15 inch wide tire?

 

[mnstrburbon]

yes i had that set up they bulge a littel and i was running a 13.50 39 irok hard to find 17 wider than 9 or a 16 wider than a 10 with out going go custom or big money.
i also have a set of 16 10 in the boxes for sale chrome wagon wheels they are in the for sale section asking 200 obo for all 4 tires where instaled and then removed never bolted on truck need gone pm if interested

They would probably bulge a fair amount with a 15" wide tire. You could put on some weld on beadlocks, but that would take away from their cheapness. I got some steel wagon wheels when I first went 8 lug, think I paid like 40 or 50 a wheel. Or you could look on craigslist, sometimes you can find stock late model wheels pretty cheep after people step it up to big ol' bling wheels

Its too dark to get any pics but I love my 22" spinners..... Go bling or go home.

I have the old school 80's turbine or aka "dukes of hazzard" rims. Thay are mag rims. They son't sell them any more I heard because they shatter under extreme stress. Anyways I think they are cool and old school is great.

I will soon be running H2s mounted on 37" mud terrains...hence lack of pics. But there are several others running this combo on ck5.

I actually saved some of the pics of the h2's, not too bad looking. just very price concious now...

 

[NorCalKid]

out here you can pick h2's up pretty cheap with the stock 35?" bfg at' s on them cause everybody wants bigger and "better" wheels

I've got H2 takeoffs on my Jimmy, $250 got me a set of 5! I hear they are going even cheaper now if ya look around for them! Can't beat that for a price on 17X9 rims!

im running 16.5x8.25 wagon wheels.i got em from keystone for 45 apiece.the 16's were the same price.they would be good up to a 13 inch wide tire.15 may be pushing it.h1 rims are also 16.5 rim.but you get the split bead on them so you dont have to go to a tire shop to mount new tires when they wear out.problem is the big backspacing and the need to move the center for mounting to the hub.

x2, I got my set a while back that were h2 takeoffs, but without the tires, for $100. Even though I had to drive 1.5 hrs each way to get them, it was still worth it.

i like the 12bolt h1's and the MT classic II's. i had black steelies as well and i really liked them too

Here are some pics of my OEM 16X6.5 steel rims (Which is what those military tires call for.) :

Do you know the backspacing on those and what they came from? They look like a good cantidate to weld on bead locks.
