RE: Re: 395s VS 1300s Great, more pics as you work on the wheels please! I will measure the distance to the exhaust pipe. Thats your concern right??

The rims were about $330 plus shipping. I think they are now more. If you don't want bead locks or stronger pressed center a 1 piece rim might be the way to go. You do save by being able to mount the tires with out a tire changer.

RE: 395s VS 1300s I really like the way that looks. The front view has great proportions, in my opinion. You will have better flotation in soft soil, and much better traction on ice than with any of the alternatives. They may not clean as well, but how many of these trucks can get enough...

I decided to use Tru Goo to balance them. It cost $39 a gallon and they recommended 32 oz per tire. Staz recommended putting it on the bead also to help slide the tires on and seal the bead. The Tru Goo guy said not to soap the bead (it must react with the Tru Goo). I guess alot of rock...

The wheels do have about 1.5-2 inch pressed centers and a 7 inch offset. I wanted them to look close to original and be stronger. They have oring seals. I ordered them in November and was told they were backed up and could not start on them till after the new year. Still did not get them...

They seemed like they would work better in the snow.

I finally got the 395/85r20's mounted on the rims and got the fronts mounted. Will try to get the rears done today. Tools: 1/2 inch impact, 4 ft. pry bar, 20 inch pry bar, rachet strap to colapse the bead lock, 2 bottle jacks, 2 gallons of true goo, torque wrench, silicone, 5 gallon bucket to...
