Wheel Blues

[Trayton Smith]

Okay, I have looked high and low at wheels, talked with tire guys all over town. Now I'm More mixed up then when I started. I saw a Sport Trac on line at one of the used car sites a few months ago, it had 15" tires with 31x10.5 Yokohama MT+. Just the look I want. I e-mailed them you think they would tell me what rims type they were, they look like a Mickey Thompson classicII. This is what I'm asking is there anyone that knows what this maybe? I had all sorts of answers at the tire shops today (I E you have a mid possitive offset the rims must be 25mm~32MM possitive in a 16" rim you can't run a negative offset on a Sport Trac at all the front end is set up like a front wheel drive car ect ect ect) I would like a 15" rim with the 31x10.50 Yokohama MT tire. But 16" with 265/75/16 Yokohama MT+ tire is fine too. PLEASE WHAT FITS let me know the wheel type name and the offset I need I know someone here has the real answer.:wacko: Thanks Smitty

Basically you want either a 15x8 with 3.75" backspace (very common) or a 16x8 with 4" backspace (Pro Comp 1069 only). Most other 16x8's have 4.5" or so backspace and the tires will rub on the inside.
