Those with Coys!!! PICS PLEASE

I am not sure on a color I am going to use which will determine wether I use a grey or chrome wheel but I am looking for everyone who has coys, the size of the wheel, the backspacing if you know it and what suspension drop the truck has. Also what size tires you are running.

I know alot of us are running them, lets see some great pics with these wheels.

I am tossed between a 17" or 18" wheel. hell maybe even a 20"

What tire size are you running? what drop is on your truck?

Re: Those with Coys!!! PICS PLEASE

OK I am really going with 20" Coys all the way around. I want to do a 20x10 with a 5" BS and a 275/40 /20. what tire would match this with profile height in the front and be a size that still fits well with a 4/6 drop? I have not seen 20" wheels with a drop yet... anyone? bueller?

Re: Those with Coys!!! PICS PLEASE

Ok, been looking at pics and reading info all freaking morning. I think I am settled on wheel size and possibly tire size. Would like any suggestions please.

Coy C5 Chrome wheels

20x8.5 5 1/4" BS 255/45/20
20x10 5 1/2" BS 295/45/20

Ill have a 4/6 drop and want to run a pretty wide tire if possible on the back. What does everyone think of this set up?
Will the fronts clear with no problems? I am pretty sure the rears will have no problems at all.

SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!!

Re: Those with Coys!!! PICS PLEASE

vegaschevy... the only piece of advice I would have to offer is to measure your truck for yourself and to not go off of other peoples specs. (not that you have)

You can save yourself a lot of headache and wasted money if you make sure the wheel/tire combo will work first. My recommendation would be to lower the truck first, and then measure.

Each truck might seem to have the same setup, but just the slightest 1/4" can make the difference between fitting and causing a fit.

Just my $.02...
