As soon as I repair my air compressor I'll get those dimensions for you. No strength left in my hands and arms to break the lug nuts loose manually.

I measured the offset to the bead seat and got 4-5/8". It's 5" to the edge of the rim itself. Alll four rims are the same. Tires up front are P205, 55, R16 and the rear is P235, 65, R16. As soon as I get a 5 speed tranny to fit my truck I plan to put my 14" rims and tires on it. The 14" tires only have 15 miles on them but the rims need serious cleaning and painting. Eventually the rims in the pic will be available, but not sure when as I am having problems finding a tranny.
If you need any more info, let me know..

I appreciate the info how much space do you have with that rim tire combo to the frame rail when the tire is cranked all the way. I know I owe you a favor and do quite a bit of traveling for work, and if I’m in your neck of the woods ill drop off a 6pack.

Here’s some updated pics of my luv

Nope. I'm about 20 minutes from the Mississippi/Louisiana state line. Leesvile is closer to the Texas state line.
