I'm ready to by some new tires and wheels. I currently have stock 8 lug 16.5" wheels on my 3/4 ton Burb. My question is can I go to a 15 inch wheel? Or am I restricted due to the brake drum and calipers??

15 will fit on the rear no sweat but the front "might" need a little caliper grinding-but not much at all......Go for it

There's a ton of info on this, do a search it's been dicussed at length.

15 in rims with 2.5 backspaceing work realy well and there ~$63 each at 4 wheel drive parts whole saler.
