Wheel problems

[Bahn112]

Anybody else having wheel problems?
I've owned the truck for a little over a year now and am on my 4th set of wheels.
Hopefully this is the last set for awhile

Hes got the same problem my wife has with shoes...



the stock wheels look the best IMO! Although i realize width and offset is not super desirable.

stock =stealth I can see changing rims if you are using different size tires

Definitely needed something with less offset to stuff the 39" BFG's on there now. No way they would come close to fitting with the stock wheel offset.

$3600 hundred give or take in wheels? Have you looked at the CJC Off Road Method 315 Ram editions? I'm on Saltas myself with Toyo 35" CTs.

Pretty close to that on just these Mesa's and BFG's. I run a full size spare on my Rig'd carrier so it's 5 of everything.

I looked at the CJC exclusives but I wanted something that not everyone had out there. I didn't see too many guys running these Mesa's so I went with these. Plus the Gray tint finish flows nicely with my Granite Pearl paint.

yeah rims are hard. spend a long time looking for ones you like. hard to find something you like with the right offset. Plus find pics of a wheel you think you like in the correct size and offset. It makes a big difference on the look of the wheel. Some wheels look great in 20's but terrible in 17's etc.

I have the same rims in grey. Any problem fitting 39s?

Quite a bit of trimming of the pinch weld and remolding/cutting of the fender liner in the front. Haven't had a chance to take it offroad to flex it out to see if any additional trimming will be necessary. I was just cycling the suspension at home with a jack.
In the rear I've been told that to maintain full flex i'd have to get longer control arms in the rear. I'll have to see how much rub there is back there.
