Default BS of stock wheel...



what is the BS and width of those kinda stock wheels? I was thinking about buying some new black 17's and just have them mounted on to the stock tire... How much does it usually cost to have stock tires mounted onto new wheels?

^ How would these fit with the 245/70/17 tire on a 4/6 drop?

im not sure on the exact numbers, but the stock wheels are fine without rubbing with a stock size tire on a 4/6 drop.

If I'm not mistaken, the chrome you see on your wheels is just a thin piece of plastic clipped on. Behind the plastic is a black wheel that looks very similar to the Cragar wheels that you posted in the link. I've seen some Police Interceptor 2005+ Tahoes that have the same wheels as you do except the chrome plastic is not clipped on. Looks pretty good especially with the chrome center cap, IMO. I figured I should let you know about this before you pay for a set of wheels that you essentially already have, LOL. Sorry, I don't know the BS of your wheels.

Ah, that's a good question. I've never taken the plastic chrome off wheels like yours. Some of my friend's trucks have the same wheels as you and I've just noticed the chrome is a thin piece of plactic. It's actually quite funny. I'm pretty sure other people on this site could tell you how to take the chrome off.
