00R OEM wheel offset/backspacing?

Goose...did you end up buying both the wheels and tires from LMR, or did you purchase the tires elsewhere? What size tire did you go with?

I bought the tires from a different place. It was some 4x4 truck site that sold a bunch of different tires. They had the best price that I found. As for the size... I had to read above since I don’t recall the exact specs. I got 18” 275 NT05s. I don’t recall the aspect ratio, but can look tomorrow.

Got a chance to look. The tires are 275/40/18. They are a bit skinnier than the original 265s. 285s would be good.

Thanks for looking! I may buy an extra set of wheels and may end up getting the Nittos as well.

Anyone know where I can pick up a set of authentic R wheels? Been in the hunt for a while, no luck.

Thanks all.

Thanks man! I’m currently in negotiation with that guy now. They’re in great shape but there’s a small blemish on one wheel. I’m also more interested in chrome, so holding out for that. Let me know if you see any, otherwise I’ll eventually pull the trigger on those. Thanks!

I have a couple of “classified” ways to search Craigslist... I wouldn’t want competition!
