New Wheels

[chuck0070]

Thinking about new wheels for my M1009. Any issue with putting a 15X10 on the rig? It's not lifted, just standard height.


Thanks

. These have 4" of back spacing.

What size tires do you have?

Currently running stock CUCV rims with 33x12.5 tires

33x12.50 tires on a 15x10 rim will rub the front fenders on a stock M1009.

Are you referring to the upper part of the fender or the front / rear lower part? I trimmed the rear lower about 1/4 inch when I put on the 33x12.5 because one tire rubbed when I made a sharp turn. Having no issues with rubbing now; am wondering if I increase wheel width from 8 inch to 10 inch if there will be any problems. Thanks

Just checking in one last time on the question I asked. From Fitz's reply am I to assume that 15X10 wheels with 33x12.5 tires will rub the fender? Like I stated earlier I already have 33x12.5 tires on stock CUCV wheels (no rubbing, trimmed a small bit off of the lower rear part of fender). How about 4" back spacing, any problem with that? Thanks

You may have to trim a little more on the rear of the front fender. Sounds like your not afraid to trim the fenders, so I say go for it.

How did the 10" rims work on the 33 x 12.5 x 15 tires? I have about a 3 " lift on my M1009 and want to get 10" rims too.
