Another wheel and tire question...

[chrismcdowell85]

Looking into buying new wheels and tires. Would like to go with 22s or 24s. My question is, what size tire has anyone ran with no issues? The 22s would be 22x9.5 et+30, and I'm thinking a 285/50r22 nitto terra grappler G2. Those are 33.2 by 11.6 wide. I like this option because more sidewall, less likely to curb a wheel.

The 24s would be 24x10, some wheels are +30 and others are +35 on the offset. This setup I'm thinking the nitto terra grappler in either a 285/40r24, which is 32.9x11. Or the same tire in size 305/35r24, which is 32.5x12.1 wide.

Anyone here ran any setup like these? Or similar. Not looking to lift, would like to stay at stock height. Just looking for some input. Thanks fellas.

Love this setup by Ferrada wheels. But they didnt know the size of tire.

Surely someone here has experience with aftermarket 22s or 24s.

I know 305/45r22 fit on stock height and stock rims (+44 backspace) with no trimming and ever so slightly rubbing at full wheel crank in reverse on the last gen Expys. Your gen has the same backspace and I would expect probably very similar fitment. I would expect you would fit either size wheel no issues. If you go look at custom offsets in the gallery there is a 22x9.5 on 285/50 with stock ride height +30 wheels. Link below

from the research I did, the 285/50/22 nittos are about the only choice to go slightly larger without lifting or running the risk of rubbing. problem is, they're about $450 each...which is pretty pricey. I think I'll bit the bullet for 20" rims at some point and know i'll save in the long run on tires each time i go for replacement.

You can find Fuel Gripper AT All Terrains as well. They actually are a pretty decent tire. But yes you are very limited in the 285/50/22 size range. 305/45/22 has many more options.

Thanks for the input! I didnt even look into the 305/45r22.. that could be a great option.

Finally pulled the trigger on a set of 24x10 Vossens. Love the look of the aggressive tires too. Went with Nitto terra grappler, 305/35r24. Cloudy day here in KC, so the pictures arent the best.

Not much room to air down. Are you going to run them off road at full pressure?

I have 24s.

Slightly off subject, but I was a little surprised at the torque specs for the Expy lug nuts. 150 lb-ft seems like a lot, but that's what the book calls for.
