04LB7DmaX · 06-10-2009, 01:10 PM

Alright guys, finally gonna order my xd monsters, gonna get 18x9s with the 4.53 backspace, now question is, i like how my trucks stance is right now and how wide the tires are, there on a 16x10 wheel currently, pretty sure the backspace is also 4.53, there just the back beadlock RWD wheels, how big of a difference am i going to see on the new set up? Much thinner? not noticable? anything will help guys thanks. Also if any of u have pics with 17x9s or 18x9s on 35s or so thatd be awesome thanks.

18x9's on 32" not sure if they show up good in this pic though.

Will it make my tire noticeably thinner? If you have any front or rear shots that would help.

As in how much sidewall you have? Or do you mean pulling the tire in more on to the rim. Depending how wide of tire you went with, it should change it to much.

Ill see if i can find other pics.

the 9" wheels will pull the tire together slightly but you would have to see a 9" and 10" wheel side by side to tell a difference..more or less not noticable..
did you want them to stick out like that,with the proper offset i have cleared 35's(a slight rub at full lock)on sevaral OBS Duramax with 9" wide wheels and with nuthin but a leveling kit!

Well mine stick out now and i like the way it looks, just really aggressive, but thanks, i just wanted to make sure it wouldnt be a huge difference in width.
