I'm getting new rims and I already purchased the front one (cause i got such a nice deal) but i'm worried that the rear wheel might be too big. It might rub up against the pulley. the new wheel is 18x8.5, the stock wheel is 18x8. This means the rim is a quarter inch bigger then the stock rim on each side.

i know there are very few of us that have changed the stock wheels on the rock but i figured i would give it a shot and see if those of you that did change it had any clearance problems.

i want to find out before I buy the rear wheel, rotors and pulley.

Help me out fellers.

 

oh i forgot, i know how much you guys like pics so here is a pic of the wheels i went with.

yah but will i have enough clearance ??

 

hdwheels.com says that the stock size is 18x8.5 and that you can use a 250mm rear without mods.

 

i think you will be fine. contact ortho doc, he has new wheels.

i hope it is okay, because i will be in the same boat as you

 

thank you fellers. i could have sworn the stock size was 18x8. i think i'm going to to go with a 250 rear tire then.

thanks again guys

 

The stock wheel is 18x8, but I understand a 18x8.5 w/250 wheel fits w/out mods.

 

I don't know man. I'm going to swing by the stealer today to take some measurements and talk to the guys down there and see what they say.

 

Alain,
