Goodyear duratracs are the best street/snow tire.

Hello thread!!!

Wolf, ill take those 12.50 if your close

wolf28

i wish i was closer to sell them to u i liove in uppr michigan yea these 10-11 wide rims and 12.50s look like balloon tires lol great for sand but i wanna cut down to 33-10.5 something that looks dcent and little better mileage

wolf28

so im looking a some black steelies rims and i want the tire to stick out maybe .5 -1.50inches out from the fender wat back spacing would i need

SCToy

you should considering the KM2 33x10.5R15. I bought a used set with about 60% tread left. I have put about 15k miles on them since then and they are probably at 10% now, but I figure I'd get at least 30k out of a new set. That's with a locked diff and I drive 90% mountain roads and I DO NOT take it easy. If I were a less aggressive driver/doing more highway I could easily see getting 40k out of a set.

wolf28

was looking at the km2s or ebay mt specials since money is a problem

I can't comment if you swap your tires for a different size, but if you decide to keep the 33x12.5x15s, then get some 15x8-3.75 or 3.5" backspace wheels. that's what size I run on my truck (the 3.75") with 33x12.5 Toyo's. Wheels stick out right around where you're asking. I have about 3/8" between sidewall and UCA.

Why do you want to get rid of the 33/12.5s? Personally I love mine

wolf28

can i put my 12.50 on a 8 inch wide rim
im runnin 33 12.5 on 11 wide rims and its killin my mileage i was lookint at going to a 15x8 rim with 33-10.5s

wolf28

i like the way that looks doesnt make the tires look like balloons like my wide rims do

what's your mpg now? what might really help is lowering your truck if it's still got the 6" lift. i can't imagine how much wind it catches that high as mine already catches a lot of wind with only around 2" lift. i don't know physics that well, but i would guess that just changing the contact patch of your tires isn't going to make a significant change for your MPGs. you might gain acceleration because they'll be lighter. obviously driving style also has a lot to do with mpg's as well.

i get around 15-18mpg with 22re/5spd/4.88s/HEAVY 33x12.5 Toyos/2" lift.

was loking at getting these http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-84-5883/overview/

i get about 14-16 mpg with 3.0L 5 speed

i think that's about average mpg for a 3.0 truck.

fairly certain that's the spec of wheel you will want if going with an 8" wide, and it gives you options vs being stuck with limited width tire. 3.75-3.5" is about the BS you need in order to keep distance between sidewall and UCA with large 12.5" tires. i'm pretty sure a 33x10.5 will fit on stock 15x7-4.75bs wheels without rubbing as well - that's why so many people run that size BFGs.

wolf28

ok well ill prolly get these and swap over my 12.5s onto these 8 wides as lond and my sidewalls dont rub

niall

Going from a 33x12.5 to a 33x10.5 is going to make NO noticable difference in your mileage.

wolf28

alright well then will at least these rims fit with no sidewall rub so i cant get rid the ballooned tire look
