265/35/22 on NBS 3/4 Drop??
265/35/22 on NBS 3/4 Drop??

I looked for a thread with this question all ready asked, but I didnt come up with anything

Anyway, I want to pick up a set of 22's from my buddy. I know 265/35/22's will fit the wheels, but will they fit my truck?

Jeff

They are Kronik Scorch 22x9.5

nope. those are 5 lug wheels. your trucks got 6 studs. theyd fit your drop though easy.

If you have enough backspacing I'd get a taller tire. That 265/35 might look a little goofy.

I'd probably go with a 265/40. I have 265/35's on my 4/6.

265/40's are a huge price jump, go figure.

here's my truck with a 265/35. my drop is a 4.5/7. I cut my front coil and added a shackle to my flip kit. some rubbing, but nothing bad. rims are 10 wide.
hope this helps.

get some more width if u have enough backspace... 285/35's look really good on a 9.5" wide wheel!
