Pics of 10 in wide wheels

[taylor351]

Tybob81 has a set of wheels that I am interested in but I question how 15x10 wheels would look all the way around on the truck.

So if anyone has pics of 15x10 especially on the front end please let me see them so I may decide and get on with my life.

10's will be pretty dang wide--may cause more wear on front end parts and pieces


ps--i ran 8 in wide wheels with 60 series on front--they fit the well ok--but i won't go that wide again on a i beam suspension

this truck belongs to a member here and if im not mistaken those are 10's all the way around. and it looks damn good if you ask me.

not meaning to offend anyone here, but i think these trucks need staggered offesets because of the wider front ends. now, that's just my opinion so don't throw too much stuff at me.

[td]

i do agree with you ezernut thats why im running mine staggered now, but i do think the 10's look good to.

[binder56jd]

they look great--tire wear on the front will be uneven from my experience on 72's--doesn't seem to be such a problem on some later models i have run--may be the width(of the front end-not the tire-although with narrower tires it does not occur)--same on old scouts with really wide tread

[taylor351]

I really do not like the way that the front tires seem to stick out of the fender wells. Oh well I am along way from shoeing this horse. I guess I will keep looking.

Thanks all who helped.

offset has a role to play in this too. i had 8" wheels all around with a crazy 2.5" offset. the fronts stuck out too far for me. i sold the two off the front to a member here and bought two 7.5" wide wheels for the front with a 3.5" backspace and the look is much better.

ezernut,

that does look better, i can tell you have good taste, and a hawk eye for detail.

td, i sometimes wonder if the unseeing live more fulfilled lives. my "hawkeye" leaves me obsessing about things i can't readily afford to fix (like a real bad yellow paint job).

[td]

ezernut,

We're in the same boat on that one!

td, ocd is a bad thing, right?

[td]

Sorry, you'll have to clue me in on ocd.

this has 8's on the front, 10's on the back. These are the best pics I have..

[taylor351]

I thought about about doing 8's upfront and 10's in the rear. I guess you can have too wide of tire in the back. Plus I still need this truck to go into fields and down waterways, in other words go off road more than most 4 wheel drives

Ezernut: I like the look of your setup and will probably steal that look from you . If you don't mind

By the way obsessive compulsive disorder (ocd) isn't bad as as long as you don't obsess about it
