Any of those prices catch your eye as a good deal? I need to do some searching for just tire prices, but the rims i can pick up for $155 a piece. If i can find some 285/70/17's for under $200 a piece i would be better off buying seperate i think.

Whats your opinions?

 

I like those!

 

Nice lookin' wheels, I would also check out the 295x70x17 Nitto Terra Grapplers. A slight bit larger than the 285's. Look's like good prices to me.

 

Those are great lookin' wheels! I found the Coopers for $187 HERE.

 

Thats one of my favorite wheels, just sux that they dont make it for my year or would be after some them for mine. Tire wise you have alot of good options there.

 

well i have done some more research, and im finding out that those prices are anywhere from $150-$250 higher than if i bought the rims seperate from the tires.

however, then i would have to figure in mounting and balancing, getting a set of lug nuts, and shipping (tires & wheels seperate instead of all in one shot)

So i think for the hassle and time that it cuts down it would be a very fair deal. But i did find some BF Goodrich Mud Terrain KM2's (285-70-17's) for $213 at Tire Rack and the place i want to get the rims from dont have those for an option in that size.

UUUUUGGGGHHHH! Talk about pulling out your hair when your trying to get just the right set up at a good price.

I think i might just go the route of doing everything seperate after all.

 

Moto Metal 957 Machined
Size: 17 x 9
Offset: -12 mm
Backspacing: 4.53"
Bolt Pattern: 6x5.5 or 6x135


Isnt my stock backspacing right around 5.5? i wanna make sure these will fit before click the "take my money" button.

 

Yes, 5.5"

 

so would they work ok with less backspacing?


i gotta go do more reading.

 

They'll fit, but less backspacing means they'll stick out farther. A 9" wheel with 4.53" bs will stick out 2.5" more than stock. Not everyone likes that look, because now they're not tucked under the fender any more.

 

thank you very much for explaining that to me.

I however, like that look. and im going with some pocket flares from Buschwacker anyways so i think it will be a good combo.

 

Should look great!
