Wilymeister 06-10-2002, 12:40 PM My truck is set up with a hevy duty 44 in front and a 14 bolt in the rear. I have seen some 15 in 8 lug wheels for sale in the for sale section before, and my question is this. Will a 15 inch rim fit over the calipers and rear drums. I have a brand new set of all terrains, 33x12.5x15 and would like to use them if possible. as a new set of tires and wheels is prohibitivley expensive. THX.

Rear..it'll fit just fine...until you do a disk conversion ;) BadDog 06-10-2002, 01:41 PM If you do a search, this has been covered MANY times. I got so tired of trying to answer this question again and again that I wrote an article to cover it. This is about D60s but, should give you an idea. Read this.

Wilymeister 06-10-2002, 05:27 PM Don't mind doin a little grinding if the price is right. But if I can find some 2.5 in bs rims thatll solve my problem. Thanks for the Info guys 4x4realm 06-11-2002, 10:40 PM 4 wheel parts whole saler has the 15X10 with 2.5 bs http://www.4wheelparts.com/product2.asp?imseqn=50&occlass=TECH&cat=WHE TEC88-5181 15x10 8 lug w/2.5" backspacing $62.95 each Wilymeister 06-13-2002, 12:06 PM Thanks Blazer, If I cant find some used ones soon, Thats the path I'll be taking.
