I know the height of the rim obviously is 16 the rims I have now are 16x7 but idk if that will fit cause 16x7 rims I can't find anywhere. Also I'm getting a 4.5 lift. So I just need to know what rim size would fit

Thanks for the help!

I have 265/75/16 duratracs slapped on 16x8 DC1's

Chuck82

So do you think 16x8 could fit on 32/11.5/16?

RGibbs

Yes.
My rule is three inches.
I have 31x10.50's on my stock 15x7 rims.

16x8 or 16x9 would be ideal, they would work on the 7s also though.

Alright cool thanks!

the skinnier wheels will create a natural bead lock if you ever air down your tires. Wider wheels will be easier to pop a bead if you ever air down.

RememberTheMallamo

Zimdogg is right. To a safe extent, skinnier rims are better than wider in that case. If you tried to run 30x9.5s on an 8 or 9 inch wide rim they would lose a bead way too easily when aired down. Something to consider though is the backspacing of such a narrow rim since you're going to have a good chunk of tire hanging off either side, it could increase your odds of rubbing on your suspension and steering components.

Damn I might just get 10.50 then but what if you have wheel spacers cause I already have my spacers on cant they stop the tire from rubbing against the suspension

RememberTheMallamo

Yes. Spacers are the equivalent of better (decreased) backspacing. I run 31x10.50s on 15x8s but they are Ravines, a Wrangler wheel with humungo 5.5 inch back spacing. I have 1.5 inch spacers which equates to 4 inches of backspacing, keeping my tires farther out from the inner workings. Sounds like you're on the right track.

RememberTheMallamo

Also remember that aside from clearance and mounting issues, skinnier tires do have some advantages over wider ones; bigger isn't always better, otherwise no one would make those tall skinny tires you'll see around here sometimes. You should really decide on your tire width based on your needs and your type of wheeling planned. Just as a loose example, skinnier tires will almost always give better fuel economy while also performing better in the snow.

Thanks man!
