ok who is running 15" wheels with 35" tires?? any pics of this and also why 15" wheels???

 

I'm wondering the same thing. I know it would be cheaper to go with 15's as opposed to 17's. But I want to know about performance and off-camber situations. And I know there's a thread about which 15's work, which don't. I'll be buying soon and haven't decided.

 

Tons of pics of this setup on this forum... just try searching.

My reasons,
1)35's cost a lot less on a 15" rim
2)they have a bit more sidewall flex on a 15" rim
3)tires available in load range C

There are negatives as well, 17" rim will give a bit more stability and most people think they look better. Probably more +'s to 17" rims that I haven't mentioned.


35's on 15" soft 8 w/ a 3" fabtech lift:


35's on 15" soft 8 w/ a 2.5" teraflex lift:

 

Did you have to grind your calipers to fit the wheels

 

I did just a little on the front. If it scares you to grind em, just put on a wheel w/ a little less backspacing. The soft 8's have 4" bs so they rub on most jk's.
