Did you have any issues with this build and these wheels as far as safety or the tire coming off? I really want to put 13.5s on a stock Ram 8 inch wide rim, but I'm worried about having any kind of issues with them. Someone I asked said first big bump I hit the tire is going to fly off the rim.
I have put 13.50 and 15.50 tires on skinny factory wheels several times with no issues. It is not recommended by the manufacturer or most tire places but you shouldn’t have any issues unless you are doing some extreme off-roading maybe
No I haven’t! My last one was like that and I think it’s just inconsistent bedsides or something but it’s not noticeable until you try to cram big tires in there
@@GRAPPAHOLICS I appreciate it. I know the general rule is you don’t wanna go 3-4 inches over the width of the wheel but seeing that you did it and ain’t have any problems I’m definitely gonna give it a shot also
@@GRAPPAHOLICS are there any dangers to going wide? I want to put 13.50s on my stock rims but someone said they'd blow off the wheel if I hit a bump. I really don't know anything about it.
@@michaelphillips7266 because the stock wheels are so much skinnier than the tire it does put extra pressure on the tire bead which could make it more likely to blow off the bead. You would most likely only see this issue in series off-road conditions. Long story short it is not recommended to go outside the approved wheel widths but I haven’t personally had any issues after having done this several times on different trucks
That sounds like a balancing issue. I’ve never had that at all! I usually don’t even get them balanced, I just have them throw the self balancing beads inside and call it good
Mostly buying cheap and selling high. I plan on making a video breaking down all the deals I’ve made to get to this point. Check out some of my newer videos if you get a chance
Austin Phillips A little bit. For every 2in bigger in tire size you get 1in of height/ground clearance. Going from 35s to 38s made it sit 1.5in higher basically.
The new platinum rims look good on those trucks as well!
Jesus Avila I thought about going that route but I’ve seen a lot of people doing that and I ended up with these on a trade a couple weeks back
Did that ford have the 2 1/2 inch leveling kit on it before you put those 38s on?
the difference in gaps in the rear between the tire and fender could possibly be the axle being titled a bit one way. Not sure though but great video.
I looked into it some, but my 2011 was the same way in the same spot. I don’t know why it’s like that though
5:34 that’s the most bald tire I’ve ever seen on a truck lol
7.3L Same!
Looks good
josh mclemore Thank you!

What about when the suspension flexes? I don’t think you’ll be comin hot into any driveways anytime soon 😂 worth it for the way the thing looks though
Snip Snap Dogo just gotta be aware of where the tire is in relation to the body at all times haha. Worth it for sure
Did you ever find out why in the rear the tires fit different from left to right?
No I haven’t! My last one was like that and I think it’s just inconsistent bedsides or something but it’s not noticeable until you try to cram big tires in there
Selling the platinum stocks? Maybe we can meet up and collab I’m in Florida just got a 6.7
The Diesel Ranch Planning on selling them with the truck. It’s for sale
I’m a little late but how wide are those wheels? I’m going for a stock look and stuffing some 38x15.50r20 but don’t know how wide the wheel should be.
The stock wheels are 8in wide I believe. It is not recommended and most shops won’t mount them but I haven’t had any issues

@@michaelbland3692 sounds like a plan! Stay safe boss

What size where the nittos that came off it before the 38s
35x12.50r20 I believe
Yo dude does your steering wheel shake with mud graps like that all the time

Will 37x12.50 fit on a 2015 f350 srw with a 2” level?
Yes they should fit with minor rubbing. Might have to trim the wheel well liner
They just rub on the radius arm
But that's what I got right now love them
What wheels are those on the Ford with the 38s?
They are factory 20in Ford wheels from a lariat chrome trim package or something like that. I got them on a trade
Yes sirrrrr
cole hair You know it
Where do you get the money to pay for all of this
Mostly buying cheap and selling high. I plan on making a video breaking down all the deals I’ve made to get to this point. Check out some of my newer videos if you get a chance
does the truck sit higher with the 38s?
Austin Phillips A little bit. For every 2in bigger in tire size you get 1in of height/ground clearance. Going from 35s to 38s made it sit 1.5in higher basically.
GRAPPAHOLICS thanks
And on the chevy 305 or 315s?
The squatting one or mine?
@@GRAPPAHOLICS the 1500hd
Caelan Comeaux it’s got 295s but it’s getting some 37s 🤫
Dang them wheels on that Chevy were bald🤣
So bald!

Nicholas Minter Where’s the fun in that, that’s been done before
