Stock Aluminum wheel width?

Are the stock Aluminum "Mod" wheels 15X7 or 15X8? Looking to run a 31X10.5 BFG All-terrain. Thanks.

If you mean the bullet hole polished alcoa type wheel, those are 15x7.5s.

Not sure about the American Racing Outlaw 2 type wheels. Probably 7.5"-8" wide.

You can run a 31x10.50 on either width though. I checked BFG's website, and I even downloaded the spec sheet on the all terrains for ya. Specs the 31x10.50R15 for 7-9" wide rim, so either way you are covered.

Take a look in my gallery, I think I have a set of the rims you're looking at...if they are the same ones, then ya they're 15-7.5"...and I have mine mounted with 32/11.5" tires.

That's them, the stock ones on your present truck and the stockers on the red EB. Long as I can fit a 31X10.5 I'm happy. They're the ones that are currently on my truck, I just wanted to make sure I was good for the tire size. If I switch the only wheel I'll put on is a 1 Gen Lightning wheel, if they will withstand 4X4 abuse....and yes I know those are a larger diameter wheel. My current tires will last 'till winter, so I have that long to make up my mind.

Well, I have the 11.5" wire tires on there, which are .5" over the "recommended" width, but they're fine. You'll do well with the 31/10.5. I don't use them anymore, just for inspections...
