Blank Canvas New Tires and Wheel Combo
 

Alright, so, I got this truck and am looking for a good tire and wheel combo
It does front leveling spacers and some sort of lift in the rear. Ive got it narrowed down pretty well but want some opinions. Im open to any suggestions.

Tire#1 Cooper STT Pro 295/70/17

Tire#2 Nitto Ridge Grappler 305/70/17

Wheel #1 Ballistic Jester 17X9 -12mm offset machined

Wheel #2 Ion Alloy 187 17X9 -12mm offset machined

Wheel #3 Red dirt road thunder 17X9 -12mm offset machined


Is that the right backspacing I figured I need 4.5-5 inches of backspacing for 12-12.25 inch wide tires

2 good tire choices .. don't care for any of the wheels. Good luck

Any other wheels you would suggest then? Atleast some good brands.

Its not a brand thing.. not into that style.. but, it's your truck buddy. If you think those look good go for it.

Oh alright thanks. Does the 4.5 inches of back spacing sound about right for a 12.25 inch wide? They are about 2 inches wider than the tires that are on it now. And if backspacing is one inch less than stock tire that extra inch on either side of wheel would be taken care of. Also is -12 mm on a 9" wide 4.5 inches of backspacing? I read that it was because the 9 inches is bead to bead but backspacing is the whole width witch is about 10" and 5"-1/2" would be 4.5. Is that correct?

I've been having the Dick Cepek (DC2)s for about 8 years now and still think they look good. I'll search for a month for something I like and that one I keep going back to and looking at is the one I always get. Well here's my set upAttachment 452863 17" DC2s with 35/12.50 toyos

Nice truck. That's a set of wheels I sorta like too. What for lift is on that truck?

6" rough country and I swapped the rear shackles on the springs to give me a little lift. It's more level now cause I just put new struts on the front.

Cool. I may go that route eventually.
What backspacing is on them wheels?
Do you have a pic of how far they stick out of fender well? Or Atleast an idea of how far they stick out.

At least 3.5" I would say Attachment 452890Attachment 452889

What backspacing or offset and width are they

I'm not sure, when I bought them 8 years ago I remember they were 17"x9" but idk about the backspacing. That's one thing I've never really paid attention to, just bought them and stuckem on. Is it measured from the inner rim to the outside lip (axle side) ?

This is from their website. -12 offset, 4.5" bs.

Thanks! Should be ordering the cooper tires and ballistic jester wheels tomorrow.

Cool! I hope all goes well.

I ordered wheels and tires for my 10th gen and didnt notice the +18 offset and had to find spacers on CL to get em installed. That was a frustrating day i tell you.

Make sure you post pics aftetwards.

When I get the cooper tires mounted white letters in or out?

I say whites in. Only bc the wheels are mostly silver. I thought it was weird my old Nitto G2s didnt have a white side.

Honestly I'm not sure if these do either :)

Nice truck man I got the same color.. I got a 2.5 level with 18x9 anthem offroad aviators -12mm with 33x12.5r18 toyo open country rt's. Ill upload a pic soon so you could get an idea what it looks like with black wheels. And yea 4.5 backspacing will be alright thats what i have and dont have rubbing problem

Awesome truck! Just ordered the stuff. I'll definitely post pics when everything is installed.

Picking up the Tires & Wheels tonight

Alright Guys they are installed. Very Happy! Totally different look! Badass!
Will Post much better daylight pics soon.

Nice man. Now you got a good looking truck!

Thanks! I agree man. Absolute change from average grandpa truck to the not crazy and over the top badass fun truck!

Very nice !!!! Man that looks great !!!!!

Thanks! Entirely changed the trucks look. I couldn't be happier. Well maybe if a buck would cooperate this archery season. :)

I really like the coopers, that'll be my next set for sure !!!

Tires stick out 2 inches of tread right now. I am going to have to put some sort of fender flares on it. Question is which should I put on.
Like the bushwhackers or just ones like the true edge streets that are only 3.5" tall but 1.75 inches of coverage

Honestly I had the bushwhackers and they were just too bulky, I'd prefer the original flares that are way smaller but it's all on how you like your tires sticking out

Here are some better pics. Still Love this new look

Looking for opinions
