I'm ordering 35x12.5x17 BFG KM2 tires and would love to do these wheels.



I'm a bit confused though. They are 17x9 with -10mm of offset. By my calculations that equates to 4.1" of backspace. From the calculation on Mickey Thompson's site... (9 / 2) - (10 * .03937) = 4.1.

For some reason "Discount Tire Direct" in this post https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...6&postcount=20 lists them as 4.6" backspacing.

I know on an 8 inch tire you want 4.5" or less of backspacing. What is the right backspacing for a 9" wheel? Any idea why the calculation comes up with 4.1" and Discount Tire Direct says they are 4.6"?

 

either way close enough 4.6 is fine!!!!

 

Love that wheel....How much are they? Discount tire you say?

 

Search the Trips and Trails thread. I talked to a guy who has these.


I think the look AWESOME!

 

I just pulled the trigger...

5 wheels, 5 BFG 35x12.50 KM2s, 5 TPMS sensors, stems, black lug nuts, mounted, balanced, delivered to my door for $2195.

Plus there is currently a $70 mail in rebate of BFGs. So $2125 at the end of the day. Thanks discounttiredirect.com!

I found someone else running these.

 

Here's mine with the same setup.

You guys are killin' me.

 

I was looking at exactly the same setup for my 09 yellow 4dr Rubi. How is the ride and what lift are you running?

FYI...I have a 2.5" Teraflex Coils lift that should be in this week.

 

Hey Doc D...... Love the wheels looks great....GOTA love theat spare though

 

Those aren't mine. I just ordered mine this morning. Those pics are of another guy I found on the site running them.

Yeah that spare really puts the difference of the tire size into perspective!
