What size wheels are needed for 31" tires?
Trending Topics
#1x10.50's can go on a 7" wide rim, but you'll have backspacing issues and will rub on the LCa's as other have said. To fix this, there are a few options:
1. WJ LCA's - do require some grinding to fit.
2. Wheel Spacers - minimum of 1.25"
3. Properly backspaced rims (4" backspacing)

Ok because im planning on buying some 31s from my neighbor for $250 for all four tires which i thought was a good deal. And i am also going to make the wheel spacers because i have the equipment to do so and itll save a lot of money
Unless you REALLY know what you're doing, please don't make the spacers yourself. a 2" spacer requires you to use a bolt on spacer. Those lug spindles need to be very strong and very well placed, as well as the hub bore being dead on. Otherwise, a lot of vibes are gonna happen and it'll either come loose or break. Spacers are not an area to go cheap on.
