Rims/Tires

[smoothcharlene]

Ok, now what options do you have for rims if you go unimog axle?? I know some 16.5's will work, but what are you looking at for backspacing? What problems may this run? In time I'l like to go disk brake conversion, and I'd really like to run 16.5" tires, so I'm going to try to stay 16.5 for now, so I don't have to buy tires twice. I've been told by a reliable individual that only "some" 16.5's will fit, but which ones, anyone w/ some experience?

On another note, if it is that much easier, and beneficial then I may just go w/ the stock rims. In which case I'd need to know who makes a good off-road tire w/ sidewall flex and capable of digging into the mud for these 20" monster rims. Where to buy?? I know daniel sells them, but where else??

Thanks.

Any 16,5" rim fit´s on our disc brake conversion, but i would prefer the "Hummer" wheels like i use them on my pick up.

In the future I do plan on going w/ the disk brake conversion, but once I get the axles unless I get some serious $$ real quick, I'm gonna be holding off on it for awhile. I'd like to go 16.5" from the start so I can keep the tires..

Anyone else?
