Thinking about rims

TheReal_MrLA · Sep 21, 2016

I Have never been big on rims but I think I want some for my 06 Expy... I'm thinking about 26s or even 28s... I definitely DON'T want to alter my truck just for rims... Does anybody know if I would have to do any trimming or lifting of I go with 1 of those sizes? Thanks

Nope!!! Im riding 26s and will go 28s or 30s myself...30s will bolt right on without any work...6x135 is the bolt pattern...I highly suggest in buying anti sway bar kit as well

Thanks! I just put them on yesterday. What will a anti sway bar kit do?

Nice bruh!!! U2s in 26s...I didn't like that rim for a long time but over the past couple of years I've come to like it...simple and easy to clean

Having rims will improve handling in the way that the will is wider...the anti sway bar kit will increase the handling even further by reducing body roll...u will notice a difference in turning IMMEDIATELY...just to give an illustration...there's a s-curve street by my wife's previous place of work with 35mph speed limit...I was able to drive 40mph and have positive control of the truck...now with the anti sway bars I'm able to be in control at almost 50mph

Nothing

Unless you busted your current sways OR want to install different or adjustible shocks

PS you wanna drift and slalom in a slammed car on huge rims and rubber band tires, buy a bimmer instead

More fun that way.

That is false...it gives u better handling and takes away even more of the side to side (sway) when turning...cornering...going through s-curves...my truck with 26s handles superb and u won't feel like you're losing the truck

Your truck presumably has sway bars already... unless your meant the old ones were kinda jacked up and no longer doing anything
