Anyone running 24" Wheels

I was checking out Trucktoyz. I know I am going to go with a 2.5" lift once my truck gets here. I was thinking off going with 24" wheels with NITTO Terra Grapler tires. ANyone have any pics with 24" wheels?

Thanks

Something different I guess. I saw a truck locally that was lifted amd had 24" rims with off road tires. I thought it looked good. I havnt puchased anything yet since my truck hasnt been delivered yet. I am just trying to get ideas.

a 2.5" lift with 24's...so this is a street truck only right?? I thought my idea of 22s and 35 would be bad (it snot at all!) but 24s and 33s would be insane....35s will be a tight fit i think. 33s will be really low profile...I mean if thats what you want I say got fo rit an dpost pics.

Im going w/ 22s because I saw a truck with them in person and loved it. plus stock trucks come with 20s...cant have that!!!

a quick search....37s on 24s...35s would be cazy nevermind 33s!!!

See I like that look of the Nissan truck you posted. that is what I am going for. yes my truck is strickly a truck that I drive to work and back. I tow a little 16' trailer that I have either a couple quads on or my Kubota tractor. Sometime some stone, mulch, dirt whatever for my house. Once in a while I will take my Dad's toyhauler if we go camping.

my point exactly bro...that truck has 37" tires. only way your going to get that lookk is by a 6" lift or downsize the setup. I have seen the setup Im going for in 24s and 37s and really liked it...but I cant go to a 6" lift and 37's. that requres a gear change which turns into more money and a pain in the azz to make a trailer work w/ that tall of a truck. so Im going with the same ratio just one size lower.

point is..that trucks looks will not work on your 2.5" lift. either get more lift (6"+) or get smaller rims/tires unless you want low profile low rider tires.

And to think, I was considering upgrading to 17" or 18" from my 20" Helo 835s.

Yep, I like those pics you posted, but the big wheel thing just don't cut it for trails and deer camp driving. My Chrome is already slightly discolored in the grooves, and I take good care of them. Not to mention the tires I am looking at cost $400+ per tire. And to the OP, if you go for the 24" post some pics of your set up.

I didn't think a 2.5" lift would work with 24's, more hoping I guess. i don't want low profile "sport" tires either. I also don't want to go too high. I am pretty stuck on a 2.5" lift. So I will have to look at 22" rims. Thanks

Does anyone even make a 33" or 35" tire for a 24" wheel?
