Those of you running 16" wheels
I have a delema. I am currently running 265/75/16 on the stock 5 spoke 7" wide wheels. They are tucked under the truck too far for my liking, so i want to go with 8" wheel and a differnt offset to stick out flush/beyond the flairs. Does anyone have any suggestions and or pics of a similar set up? O and i need to replace my t-bars w the "1" code ones from a sport track and replace my "K" code worn out rear springs with new K codes. Hopefully then the truck will sit somewhat level.

Re: Those of you running 16" wheels
No pics, sorry, but i have the 16X8's (same tire size as you) with a Back spacing of 3.75 (stock for our trucks is 4.25) so my tires are perfectly even with the edge of the wheel fenders.

Re: Those of you running 16" wheels
If you decide to go with aftermarket wheels, let me know. I would be interested in your current wheels.

Re: Those of you running 16" wheels
16x8 w/4" backspacing
the 4" backspacing isn't enough imo. i would also go 3.75 or 3.5.
with my tires, the inner lugs on the sidewall rub my frame a tiny bit at full lock. but narrower tires would fix that.
