just got new rims

i think i just got a really good deal on rims/tires. i got 4 15x8 american racing outlaw II's with 31x10.50s, about 70% tread for $150.00. the rims have 3.75" backspacing. im going to run the 31s for a while, but once i get enough money saved up im gonna be set up perfectly for 33s. what do you think?

First of all, if you could use a more concise thread title next time, this forum would love you so much more, as the search feature would be able to help other users out more .

Other than that, I don't see a reason you shouldn't get 33's if you have enough space. What kind of lift do you have right now?

Also, pics please, yeah, thanks

my bad, i couldnt think of a more creative title. i have bj spacers in the front, aal in the back. there was plenty of room with my 32s, if there isnt enough room for the 33s ill get a 1" body lift and pound the pinch weld.

sorry, i cant get pics, but i can put a picture of what they look like new (just as good right?)

i dig those rims a lot. my dad had them on his truck for quite a few years, and he just took em off, so i'm gonna try and talk him into letting me mount them on my yota.

yeah, i like them too. they look classic. i had a set on my old explorer. this is what i had before i got them:



pretty bad. but the funny thing is is that all the rims were identical, so on one side they rotated like a mario fireball and on the other they rotated like a saw blade. i really need 33s the 31s look ridiculous now

ive been driving it with 32s and they didnt have any problems, so i figured i could live with 33s without regearing for a while. if anybody reading this has been running 33s with stock 4.10 gearing, id like to know what you think.

I ran 33x10.50's on a '97 Tacoma 4 banger and honestly didn't notice much of a difference, it had 4.10's. 33x12.50's would obviously add more weight to the equation.
