Yes 315 on 10.5 wheels. Fixed post, thanks

^That X has fender flares, they may stick out too much on your X without flares.

Ok, so I'm the a-hole with another wheel question. I got a smokin deal on a set of 4 9.5" 87's. I sanded all the blemishes out and had them powdercoated. Now I want to mount them. I kinda want to go 295/45/20 all the way around. If that's not a good idea tell me. 275's are my next choice. What size spacers should I use to make them look right?
It's a 2006 4.4. I currently run a staggered setup but I bent 2 wheels. Had them straightened, but still feels funky. Thanks in advance.

Looks great - but how come the lug bolts stick out so much? Are you using the factory bolts?

Thanks for posting the results!

I think if I do this I will go with just a smidge less, maybe 25mm.

Or do 30mm and add flares!
