Default Size of rim for slicks???

OK.. I have a set of M&H 22x8x13 slick... now I was thinking of using a VX rim for the slicks? Will that work? Or will that be too narrow? I'm worried about the inside of the tire rubbing against the steering knuckle. Anybody have any experience with this?

Thanks.

definately get a wider rim. those stock vx are only 5.5" wide and thats not wide enough for the 8" wide slick. you can get the lenso vpd's, they're 13x7.5 and have the correct offset so that you dont have to run spacers

Yeah? What's the price and where can I get a set? What's the offset of those Lenzo? What offset do I need? Thanks.

need 13x7 at the least. STD Lenso's will do the trick. Look on Groupbys Forum.
