Hey, my brain is working overtime again. Need to decide on my tire/wheel combo. I was thinking I wanted the Goodyear Wrangler MT/R, in 40-13.50R17. Was thinking of the Trailready beadlocks in 17x10 size. Contacted Trailready and no go on the 10" wheels, only 8.5. Can't get the 10" anymore. Started looking at Allied's Black Rock 8's. They make them in a 17x9.5, with a 3.5 backspacing. That sounds like it will work here, and I like the look and price. Anybody running these on 8 lug 1 tons? Any feedback here would be great, need to make a decision. Allieds price is better, gonna need 5 of them, so looking at cost's also. Currently running the TSL SS's in 39.5x 15x15 size on my stock setup. When I swap in the 1 tons, want to go with the 17'' wheels, and 40" or 41" rubber. Anybody got any help here?
