bet the tyre is a 31 x 12.5 inch thornbird. It's the only 12.5 inch tyre that I know of in a 31. Can't help with the rim though you'd just work back from the 12.5 inch width which I think is generally recommended to go on a minimum 8.5 inch rim. You'd want mega offset rims to clear your springs though unless you're running NT spacing.

They will be custom offset and 10" wide. Not sure on size tho. Could be as big as 17's.

I agree on the tyre, and I reckon 15x10 rim with 2" backspace (-75 offset 8O )

Back the truck up !

Have you been out 4wding yet?
Why would you want rims this size?
Are they going on standard diffs?
How are you going to cover the tyres?

And to cover the tyres, BUSHWACKER FLARES 6" WIDE

Might not be the most experiensed 4WDriver but i know what mods can do to the car, (improve driveabilty in the right areas) and things i dont know ill find out while doing it just like most 4WDrivers have along the way

I said i want them on my zook dosnt mean im getting them lol I just want to find out what size they are :P

Like i said in one of my posts, my zook is goin to be a toy (TUFF ONE AT THAT) :wink:

Yes i have !!

And to cover the tyres, BUSHWACKER FLARES 6" WIDE



Dot some bad news for ya.

6" flares won't be enough to cover that sort of offset matey.

I have 15x10's with 4.5" backspace and -47 offset and 6" bushwackers don't cover my tyres.

The rims in that pic have another 2" on mine, so you would need more like 8-9" of flare! Thats way too much to be driven on the street.

Hmm.. I would have bet on a bigger rim than a 15" looks to have a very shallow sidewall. May be an optical illusion due to the tire width though..

Doesn't say 15" does it? I'd say more like 17"
