H1's on dually hubs. No go!

[tacoma]

So. I've got my H1's, and a spare set of dually hubs, which I would have liked to use, but they stick the tire too far out.
1. Won't pass inspection
2. Looks ghetto as hell
3. Will probably smush the fender when flexed. (these are going on my Blazer trail rig. )

RE: H1

He LIVES! Whats up Tacoma? Yeah looks like you'll kill that fender quick if you use those wheels.

RE: H1

that wont pass inspection?! Its barely out past the fender, throw some stick on fender flares for the inspection

RE: H1

Uh, screw the flares, that looks retarded, even for a Chevy.

So what are you going to do Tac? Go the spacer route or send the rims to poor little me for my Ramcharger?

RE: H1

I'll take some close-up shots of mine, so you can see how they are spaced with the spacers on the SRW hub. Also I do have a set of bushwacker flairs for sale if you go that route.

I hate flares. Do you need a set of H1's? Get them from the guy I got them from-- 406YJ on pirate, in the vendors section. He let me keep 3 8-bolts when he sent me the wrong ones-- stack of 4 w/radials, first one had the right 12bolt rim, other 3 were 8. So he told me to keep them, and sent me the right ones last week. Anyway both shipments came quick, and he's CHEAP. Like $75 a piece for rim/beadlock/tire, and MUCH less for 8bolts w/no runflats or tires. $30-40ea if I remember. Tell him I sent you if you go that way.

I'm going to use spacers. CCATLETT1984, I would love to see those pics. I think I might actually have some that oyu've already posted.

Yeah, that is on the work truck-- just to see what the dually hub deal looks like. Obviously, that is not going to work LOL

They're going on my Blazer, which is getting a 4" lift soon.

RE: Re: RE: H1

Thanks for the info, Tac. I might get in touch with him if I get my money issues sorted out. Shipping is the main killer on most of these deals for me since no one on the East Coast seems to have any, they are all out West.

RE: Re: RE: H1

This guy is in KS. It was $254 to ship 725# of tires and pallet to UT. Of course, I got them shipped to SLC, and you're in east nowhere, VA, so your shipping might cost ya.

RE: Re: RE: H1

ONLY $254 FOR THE TIRES AND RIMS!!? That's great! How is the tread on those?

Just the SHIPPING was $254. The rims, runflats, and tires were another $300. So... about $104 per wheel, which I can be happy with.

The tread is great! 5 of the 7 are nearly new, one IS new, and the other has some feathering on the inside edge.

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: H1

Yeah, that's not bad at all. I just wish someone within 60 miles of me had some I could just go pick up, lol. I can find the tires everywhere, just not the rims. Oh well, I don't have the money to spend right now anyway. Time to play the lottery so I can continue to put gas in my Ram, lol.

 

[Croatan_Kid]

I've got a set of 12 bolts, just no runflats.

Want to get rid of the dually hubs?
