I want to put some new tires on my "88,and wheels also.I want Cragar Soft 8's(or similar).I'm only going with a mild lift and 30 or 31's at most.What size wheel,backspacing ect..do i need?Thanks

 

Im using 30X9.5s on stock rims and lift. No rubbing so far.

 

My stock alum. rims are crusty looking,that's why i want some new ones!

 

You will rub once you remove the sway bars and flex it lol.

I have 30's on my 3in lift. They tuck in perfect there. I did have them for a while with no lift and while they do great on the street once I removed the sway bar they eat into everything when flexing.

 

Ive got 31's with d-windows (pretty much same as soft 8's spec wise). The backspacing is 4" and they rub on the fender flares when im flexed out. I would go with a 15x8 just in case you want to run a bigger tire later.

Thanks!I'm getting 30x9:50 BFG made Mud Kings.I won't be going with bigger tires on this rig.Will it matter much if i go with 7 or 8 inch wide wheels???

 

For only $1 or $2 per wheel you should get the 15x 8"
If you are investing in wheels go with the 8" and you will have the option to upgrade tires in the future.

 

I ordered the 15x8's today

 

Where did you get them? Summit.com?
Post some pics after installation!!!
