So I'm about to order new rims and tires. While I'm in Myrtle Beach this coming week I'm having the OME suspension installed and alignment done. And then in the next week or so.following I'm installing the 2" body lift. I've read I think all the wheel threads but still have questions.
I'm looking at 17x9 rims, with 285/70 r17s, obviously seen many people list they run 33s with no rubbing or minimal rubbing with just 2" suspension or 2" body lift. So rubbing shouldn't be a factor. But I'm trying to figure out what back spacing to go with on them. I know especially with the aisin hubs I need atleast 108mm center bore. Any input would be great.

And priced very reasonably. Might not be rock crawling certified, but think that they will be ok for the trails I hit. And if I did the math correct the right offset etc for the width.

 Look what showed up on my door step  370 for all 4, blue lug nuts, blue valve and valve cap. Want to paint the silver to the same blue as vehicle when the body shop touches it up this fall. |

As in, make sure bore size fits over the manual hubs, or to see if there is rubbing once I get the wheels mounted and balanced, or the lug pattern?

Just unbolt a front one and a rear one put your new wheels on make sure they bolt down all the way and you can turn them you don't have to worry about the tires right now

Fit like a glove, no touching or dragging on rim front or back, I even used a jack to compress the front suspension to see if it got close to anything. Turned wheel all the way both ways while spinning them and still didn't touch anything. I know that they are a tight squeeze getting them on with the manual locking hubs, but so we're stock rims. I just got the first one mounted today, and need to test fit with tires on in the front and see what areas I will need to modify. I am pretty sure with the added negative offset -6 from +10 and the wider tires I am going to be really close to mud flaps when turning the wheel tightly. I may have to trim them a small tad.

Yeah, look better in person then the pictures. For $350 for 4 delivered I am definitely happy. They have a nice bulge past the rim lip with these tires mounted, but not so excessive that I'll have a ton of sidewall roll on the highway.  |

One rim is still on back order, just shipped. So between Thursday and Monday latest they said it will be here. I have other 3 mounted and balanced. I still need to get someone to help me mark my mud flaps for trimming, think a lot of the molded scoop forward part will be trimmed off.
