Hey guys,


Well, I have decided to stick with the the wheels I have. I have a se of Eagle Alloy Series 114 in 18" . Now, they are 18x9.5 so what is the right tire size? They have 285/60/18 Nitto A/T's on them right now but they arent near tall enough. Below are the specs on the wheels themselves. I need to order these tires today guys.


Thanks,


Chad

I think the tires that you have should be the right size, they will measure about 33". If they are not tall enough, you should look for those in a 70 series.

Okay,


I called TireRack and they said the tire's I have on there right now were closer to 31". So, I ordered a set of 285/65/18 BFG All Terrain's. They said it was 32.6" tall and it would only be .2" of an inch shorter than what I have now.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif
