I just wondered what the maximum tire size for that rim would be.

I think I like these rims. They're gonna cost me more than buying the "chrome clad" 20" factory jobs with tires, but they look good. Don't they?
are those the boss 335's? very fetch!

Yupper's them sure are. What ya think? I was thinking of going with 295/40/22's. I think the 45's make the wheel look small.

U gotta explain, "fetch"........LOL.

Before I get yelled at again, I will post pics of this kit in a few still ripping, and burning.

its off some chick flick, it means super cool. anyways! so you wanna do 20's or 22's? it all depends on what stance you want. with 20's you can go lower, but with 22's your truck might be lowered, but it'l still sit high... sorry Mike

i know, its almost a shame to see her now. its all good ken i was just looking at that when i got off of work. i was thinking that i want to be lower but i love my wheel an tire combo. i know you can still have 22+ and drop it drop it low. but i dont want to have to buy 22x8 with rubberbands. i like to dog the **** out of my hemi at times and i feel comfortable doing that now. i dont think i would be so sure with 2" of meat. function over form to a point. maybe i can talk my dad out of his 01 ram and bag that bitty.

Yup, I'm staying with the 22's. Don't really care about being the "lowest", that's not why I'm lowering the truck anyway. I'm doing it for better handling. Gonna swap that sway bar out too. Thinking of doing ladder bars. Supposedly they help with traction. N with the power I'm gonna putting down, I need all the traction I can get.
