Body Lift and 33's

[Victor V01]

Hey, Great lookin Trac. I'm jealous.

Do you happen to have the part number of the wheels that fit the Sport trac? I want to get those wheels, and want to get the right offset.Thanks

Thanks Kyle... I'll look into the stear! I didn't realize initially that you are running 15x8's (I am too ). Nice looking rig!

 

[Curt Brubaker]

I have to give you props, I like it a lot. Then again...you can see why I'd have that opinion!

<P>

Did you have any issues with the 31x10.5's on the stock wheels with rubbing without the body lift? I'm contemplating putting a second set on my stock wheels to run for winter and really getting dirty.

Becker C0 - the new rims are actually 15x10 not 15x8.

Matt Bruno and VictorV - the rims are dick cepek (DS-1-Black) and are 15x10's. got them from tirepackage.com for $117 a piece.

Curt - I had no problems with the 31x10.5's on the stock wheels. They ran fine without any rubbing.

For clarification, I have 15x8's. They are just over $1200 shipped, mounted balanced ready to go with lug nights from 4wheelparts.com

So, if i was to get the following combo:



4) 15x8, 5x4.5 bolt pattern, Dick Cepek DC-1 Black.

4) Mickey Thompson MTZ 31x10.5x15 tires



i could put them straight on the ST without a lift kit or lift of any sort?

 

[Kyle Walsdorf]

I had stock 15 inch rims and 31x10.5 BFG A/T and didnt have to do anything, so im gonna say yes.

 

[Tom Schindler]

Those wheels look very different. I like them.

Thanks Kyle.



To be honest I'm new at this, and right now am ready to go in for a new set of tires and wheels (have the money set aside for it!). I'm just confused as to wether or not i should spend the extra money, get a lift, and then go for a 33x10.5 tire, or not get the lift, and go for a 31x10.5 tire. Both your's and Curt's set up above look really good.....

I'm also now conflicted on the rims... dick cepeks or the american racing vintage vectors.....



choices...choices....



pretty confusing.... :unsure::unsure::unsure:
