Theres a bunch of sites honestly, i got my rims and tires seperately cuz of the great deals.

www.rimzoneonline.com is one i used, $150ish for your motos and $280 for the tires. Thats just the first one i looked at but you get the idea.

I seen the trail grapplers on tire buyer for 260.99. Since discount tire has free shipping I'm sure they would match the price. It's difficult to pick out wheels. What back spacing should I go with. I just found out I have the 3.73 gears. Which programmer should I go with. I seen hypertech gets a lot more power to the wheels.

Its personal choice really, i like mine to stick out so i went with a -12 offset. This setup allows me to run 295/70r18s after some plastic trimming. Now if you wanted a true 35/12.5/r(whatever) then you will need a positive offset to my knowledge, like +18 i believe.(dont quote me)

I havn't measured but i think mine stick out like 2 inches. Heres a pic.



I dont know if its verry flat land where your at but its SUUUPER hilly where im at and without a programmer to make up for the weight, my trucks always upshifting trying to find gears and ive got 3.73 gears as well.

As far as programmers I've heard really good things from Edge products, thats what im looking into as far as non custom tunes. The edge programmer can adjust for tire size by default so its a plus for me so i can get my speedo back to accurate.

I loved the look that GolferGuy has so I got the same tires. My rims were 18x9 with 5" backspacing and 0 offset. I believe that my tires are "tucked in" a litte more than GolferGuy's. I had to do some trimming in the back side of the fender well, but well worth it for the look. I've had nothing but compliments on my setup in the past few days. I also have the Edge programmer and love it as well. (running stock #2 Tow tune)
