Subject: What Wheels Should I Get??
IP: Logged

Message:
I have a 98 dakota reg.cab 4x4, im putting a 3" body lift on and im wanting new wheels and tires that stick out even with or a little past my fender flares, Im wanting to run 32x12" tires. I was thinking about getting AE589's but ive heard that they have 3.25" backspacing, although i think this wheel would give me the look im looking for, ive heard it is very rough on the ball joints. If you have any idea of a wheel that would give me the look that i want without hurting my truck I would love to hear your opinion.
Thanks

AE589 15x8 or 16x8 should be fine.

American Racing makes the Baja in 15" and 16" sizes that will work better than the AE (as far as backspacing). The AE is 3.25" while the AR is 5.25" for the 15" and 4.5" for the 16". Hope this helps.
