Looking For Rim Information

pearsog · 06-08-2009, 03:23 AM

To start:I have an 09 GMC 2500 Duramax Crew Cab 4x4

I am in need of some rims. I have a set of Toyo M/T 33 x12.5 x18 that I want to put on. I am looking at getting a leveling kit installed to whatever size I need to accomodate.

What kind of offset and back space and all that other good stuff would I need to get this to work. I don't want the tires to stick out to far if I can help it.

I have been struggling for months to get an answer from someone so I hope I came to the right place this time.

I will pick the brand of rims after I get some numbers. Thanx

stay around 5 inches of back space. The lower the BS the farther out they will be. 5 inches will put you right inline with the fender. XD makes some rims that are 5.71 inches of BS, I would look at them seeing how you wanna keep inside the fender.

Someone that works at a tires store or off road shop couldn't help you out?

Looks like I found some rims for the truck. Going with REV Dirty Harry (Chrome). Some of the only rims I can find in 18". Should look good. Truck is off to get a levelling kit installed and tires and rims put on. Should be back mid next week. I'll post some pics when I get it back.

Which leveling kit are you using. I'm going in the same direction as you and would like to know the particulars.
