so i just purchased some wheels for HIGH Life
Eimer
Thanks a bunch! i forgot all about those instructions.... it hard to explain that to someone who is not very machanically gifted and also over thousands of miles away on an iPod facetime screen with service that keeps going in and out. it should help. im hoping she can get someone else over to just cut some more out of the original mudguard and possibly the inner fender guard so that the rubbing sound isnt as bad. wish i was home to do it.
thank you! they are rubbin a bit in the back thats why i had the urgent question earlier. hopefully i can get someone back home to do a temp fix till i can get home and do it right..... its also in need of a bath, a good waxin... and then some night shade and some plasti dipped areas. hmmmmm? money is having to be saved for now though... F'n Dvorce!
ok wheels are Eagle Alloy 140 series 16x8 with 4.517in backspacing and a +2.00mm offset
Tires are Cooper Discoverer S/T, not STT's or the S/TC's (LT285/75/R16) N speed rating. diameter of 32.80in, section width of 11.30in, tread width of 9.20in. recomended wheel width is 7.50 - 9.00in. the tires are around 225.00 a piece but i got mine used for free!
3" PA body lift, 2" DayStar(i think) front leveling kit. no blocks in the rear. old crappy original rear shocks and old crappy original struts.
the guys in here are right though.... if you dont want rubbing issues stay as close to the +25mm OEM offset as possible. mine thankfully is rubbing only on the rear corner of the mudguard and not on the front bumber. but i know im cutting it close and it can get worse if i hit bumps while turning or corner too fast. next set of tires may have to be smaller??????
and thanks for the compliments ya'll! shes a work in progress!
