17x12 wheels..... are they ghosts?

DODGETHIS12 · 02-23-2009, 05:44 PM

Hello guys. Im looking at running an 8" short arm on my 07 cummins and wanted to go with either 38.5 or 40 ground hawgs as they do now make them in 17" diams. I wanted to get them on wheels at least 12" wide.

Why am I having such a hard time finding wheels wider than 9" in a 17" diameter. I need some 17x12's..... can anybody help or suggest where I might look!!! 4wp, tyres 1, natl tire, etc have not returned anything in my searching.

I wish there were more options!! How bad is it gonna rub if I stick with 8 and 38.5's? Ground Hawgs run small anyways so the 38.5 will be considerably shorter. I have heard of people clearing 40's on 8" with 3 rd gens.

I am looking for some 17x10's myself. The truck had 17x8's on it when I bought it. I have to air them down to about 8lbs if I hit the sand.

What kinda price did you pay for those just out of curiosity. I looked at the Forest ones here a while back, but I never got a price.

Sry... Everest... I don't know where I got Forest.
