Default Re: Day 2 Wheels and Tires

Damien, a 275 tire will fit fine on a 8" wheel but you have to run a 4-1/2" backspace.

You <span style="font-style: italic">can</span> run a 10&quot; wide wheel but the body has to be centered perfect with the frame/rearend and that wheel needs a 5-1/2&quot; backspace.

Thanks Kurt. I think I will go with the 8&quot; wheel on the rear.
