Hey TexasJeff, fine looking truck there, wheels and all, (clicked on ur link and luv the stock-look) as well as 78Chevyrado's great lookin' truck too. But what I'm wondering is since I'm in the market for wheels/tires, is what are the fattest 16" tires I can put on stock rims for THE FRONT of an '86 GMC C3500 without trimming bodywork? I know that 265/75's and 285/75's fit the rears no probs but wonder if your fronts might rub the fender wells... just a bit? Looks tight to me. Any advice?

i was wondering..... do the 7 and 8 inch rallys have the same back space?

grinch4om · 01-03-2009, 06:41 PM

no...the sevens have less and that is why I had to use them with the drop spindles..I think the 8's are centered as are the 7's...thus a half an inch to clear the a-arm. bigger wheels and this issue goes away

joe231 · 01-03-2009, 06:53 PM

thanks!
