Title: 16" dodge ram wheels
Post by: dp728 on June 11, 2010, 09:51:36 AM

Hi, I'm super new to the sami world. I am trying to figure out how to build my rig.
1. want to do a spoa lift. (home built) I'm guessing that will give me 4" of lift?
2. was looking at rims and tires. has anyone try ed to use 16" dodge ram wheels w/5x5.5 bolt pattern?
maxxis makes a tire 255/85-16 (33.5 x 10 ) fits a 7" wheel.
these are probably crazy questions.
thanks for your time

The problem with the stock dodge wheels I have seen is that they have waaay to much backspacing for a samurai...which will cause the tires to rub the springs hard when turning.
Yeah, around 4" of lift, depending on what spring perches you use.
