Wheel/Tire Sizes
I am planning on running 15" wheels on my B&B. I want the authentic look, but do not want to narrow my SN95 rear end. This is the rear end that is 3/4" per side wider than a FOX rear. What size wheels and what offset should I run? I am also running the tubular front control arms. Also, what tire size should I go with? I am planning on going with BFG Radial T/As.
Looking at an old manual from B&B, it looks like they recomend 7" and 8" wheels, with 4.5" and 5.5" backspacing. I am thinking that I should be running 6" to 6.25" backspacing on the rears in this case. Anyone running wider rears? wider fronts? |
15X8 Front with 5.5 backspacing
15X10 Rear with 6.25 backspacing To use the 15X10 you would need 7 in backspacing |
15 X 7 Team III with 4" back front
15 X 8 Team III with 5" back rear |
I am assuming that you meant 15x9 with the 6.25 and 15x10 would need 7, am I right?
With the Team III wheels, are you running a standard FOX rear end or the SN95? |
Or were u doing the conversion for me, saying I would need 15 x 10 w/ 7".
|
You would need 7 in. Backspacing with a 10 in. wheel.
I have a 9 in. ford which is 1 1/2 in. less in width than yours. |
Okay, with 10" wheels, what tire size would you run? And for the fronts?

Rear 2.95/50X15
Front 2.45/60X15 Call me at 405-823-4693 if you have more questions. |
