CRAGER S/S

Post by cajuncannon03 »

I think I will go with Crager S/S on the bump. I am looking @ 15 x 6 on front and 15 x 8 on back. Can someone help with backspacing on rear wheels( 2.5 or 4)? Also, which tire size should I use, front and back. Thanks for your help.

Any chance you're running disc brakes on the front?

I iwould run 235/60s on the front and 255/60s on the back. would be a nice fit on those wheels without being too low profile for a truck. Ii have 235/60s on the front and 275/60s on the back of my truck and i think the 275s look a little tall. my wheels are 15x8 all around

Are you wanting to offset the front/rear backspacing to correct the track width?

No, not really. I have 15 x 8 old crager sst's on rear, and I'm maybe 1" from inside of rear fender. I want to make sure the s/s will not come any closer to fender.
