do you think you'll still be able to lay it out with 26's on it?
I think I read some where that their the same width as the 22,24's but don't belive me

when i called american force they said just a little more but couldnt give me and exact measurement. they probably think im bullshitting about really wanting to buy them. yea, 2100 a wheel is crazy. but i can buy one a month. lol

ya, its possible to lay on a 26. hell if i wanted a 25 series i could lay body on 26's but i like pulling with my truck alot. lol

Are the 26's DBO or do they still use adapters? The black Ford has 10 lugs and the white Dodge has a bigger than usual 8 lug pattern.

The wheels that I have seen seem to be around an inch difference in offset, but that was just eyeballing the measurements. I also noticed that the material is thinner in some places where I thought it shouldn't have been and the load rating is around 3200lbs.

so lock, do you think they would still be good to tow on? i tow 2-3 cars on my 305/35/24's with 0 problems so im thinking a 305/40/26 maybe?? but id rather have towing capacity and 24's then bigger wheels with a useless truck.....

lol I had my buddies 55 chev on the trailer and my truck was fairly clean so the whole show was matching in black and getting double takes by everyone. we were at a gas station and this homless guy walked back and forth looking at the car then my truck. finely he stopped and basicly yelled at us " HOLLY FUCK IT COST ALOT TO BE COOL THESE DAYS"

so at 2100 a wheel I'm guessing its just the cost of being cool
