Not sure on the 60's but I have 3.5" bs rims w/35's on my 40 and they clear fine. I had 4" bs rims and they were damn close to the TREs. I would think that anywhere from a 3-3.5" bs is what you would want. Gives you a little more width to counter the new height of the rig. that's just my $0.02

I would shoot for a 3.5" b/s wheel..

Guess I do not know what you are eluding to as far as the Summit comment goes...

Good luck!

[lowtideride]

dude, gnarly man i like totally missed it bra....sorry (point break)

 

[Poser]

I bet that someone is still answering the phones there right now....

Just a thought.

If you go with 2" backspace you won't have TRE clearance issues and you get the added stability of a wider track width.

 

[lowtideride]

will 2" back spacing still fit tho?

 

[Landpimp]

Unique makes a white spoke in 3.75(but fits better than most 3.5's) for $30 I think, I run them on my fj45 with 35's. rattle can em black

 

[lowtideride]

ok i called up SUMMIT and they can give me free shipping and a black wheel for 38 bucks a pop but the problem is that i can only get 3.75 back spacing and i need at least 3.5 because the stock back spacing is 3.5 and it barly clearing the TRE with my bent up arms and 31s. because what im thinking is that a 35 inch tire is going to have more side wall flex and rub my TREs to death anytime i hit a bumb or under a lower inflation than street. so does anyone know where i can get a 1/4 inch wheel spacer either to buy one or to have one made.(south florida is useless as far as parts go).
thanks

Hey Al, Summit may or any tire/parts store should have that 1/4" universal spacer available. In a pinch you can use washers on each wheel stud.

 

[Trevor]

This is totally unrelated, but how are you going to fit your 60 in the garage with 35's? It looks close with 31's.

 

[drohweder]

The rack is going to have to come off. My 55 with 35s fits by 1/8th and I had modify the garage door a bit to get that wiggle room! Good luck

 

[SPRDAV]

I agree with Hammerhead, the stability is what you need. I have a 40 and I'm changing to 2.5 backspacing. With the weight of a 60 you need that extra stability. I think 4Wheel Parts has black 2.5 backspaced rims for 29$ each. Just a thought.

 

[Poser]

Has 4wheel parts whoresalers started selling them again?

Last I talked with them, they gave me some cock and bull story about wheel manufactures being sued, and blah blah blah...
