What size wheel can I use?

[BamaDogg]

I have a set of 315/75/16's on the truck now, like new. What size rim would work for this?

 

[BamaDogg]

Anyone?

16"

Are you asking width? 8-10" is a good range. Careful on the back spacing, even more so on teh wider wheels. Are you lifted?

I am lifted some. Have what looks like a 4 inch lift maybe? I need to post some pics so I can figure it out. The wheels clear now barely with the torsion bars cranked. What would you suggest for width and backspacing?

 

[bowtiefreak]

skinny and less back spacing will be better if it just clears now on stockers (stockers right?)

I always bring up myself as an example. I run over 6.5" lift on my tahoe, wheels were 17x8 with 4.5" back spacing wrapped in 35x12.5 tires. They rubbed sometimes. I still needed to trim the inner fenders on teh back side.

The wider the wheel the worse it will get

They are not stock rims. I have some pictures of the lift I'll post tomorrow morning. I'll also take pictures of the rims. They are deep dish and rather wide. I appreciate you helping me out.

Here are some pictures of the lift and also the rim. I'm trying to figure out what I have. Ignore the rust please. ; )

If I measure rim width lip to lip it looks like an 11" rim.

If I am not mistaken that is an American Racing AR 136 (they used to be chrome with a clear coat). I had a set on my dime. Nice light wheels.

Could be either a 16x8 or 16x10. both of which have a 4.5" back spacing. Do you have a picture of the front of the truck? Like a head on shot? This will maybe help see how far they stick out now

As for measuring the width I want to say width is from where the beads set. 11" might be a 10" wheel. Can you also get me a whole shot of the truck? 1) just want to see 2) you may have no issue with a x10 if those turn out to be a x8.

I can get you a shot when I get back from NO. I bet they are 16x10's. I wouldn't mind going to a narrower rim if it help with the rub. Any ideas on the lift as well? Trying to figure out what I have with it too.
