does anyone here have 15 inch rims and if so did you have to do any "modifications" to your truck?
i looked and it seems 15x8(10) with 4 inches back spacing will clear all components like the caliper and tie rod end but before i go buying a new set of rims i would like some input if at all possible from someone who has gone down a size from the stock 16 inch rims

the tires i want to put on said rims would be something along the lines of a 35 or 36 inch super swamper tsl preferrably 35x14.5r15

 

my old boss had 15in rims on his with 3in backspacing if i remember correctly, and he runs 33x12.50x 15 BFG M/T's and they rub the front bumper bad.

 

can't really help much without know what type of vehicle you have.

 

i have 15 inch rims on my 1998 with 31 x 10.5" rubber, no issues with clearing all the components in the front end. If i hit a bump while turning they rub the running board slightly, with tires the size you are wanting to istall i would imagine you will need a lift.

 

I put a set of 15" wheels of a tracker and they bolted right up. I only cooked the tiny tires off and then reinstalled my 35" s , but they did bolt up and clear the calipers . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKQhYko6K5s

 

LOL that looks awesome lifted truck with little pizza cutters lol

 

I've got 15x8's with 33 12.50's on my 95. no clearance issues at all

 

ive got 15x10 with 33x12.50 and they clear everything fine. I believe they are 4" backspacing.

 

im sorry, i did not mention anything about what i currently have on there or what specific truck i have

my 97 Ram (sport) is currently sitting on its stock 16 rims with 33x13.5 super swamper tsl i experience no rubbing or anything of the sort unless i trun the wheel all the way right or left then i get slight rubbing of the control arms from the ***** on the tires

the suspension and all is still stock, but within the week i am putting a 5 inch lift kit on the thing and since there is a nice price diffrence from 16 to 15 inch rim tires i want to get 15 inch rims and wanted some input from people, which i appreciate everyones replies

 

i was running a 15x10 inch rim on mu '01 and had no clearance issuses at all. the tires were 35/12.50/15 only thing that rubbed was the nubs of the tire on my lower fender. im not sure what the backspacing was, but id say it was probly 4"
