Hey Guys,
I'm looking for a set of American Racing Torq-Thrust ST's in 18x8.8''. But I'm wondering about the Boyd Coddington Timeless 6's. I know the 18x8'' Timless 6's will fit my truck but will the 18x9.5" fit?? What would be the best tire for the 18x9.5" cause I want a full diameter of the tire to be 29.0 inches.

 

I basically have the Boyds in a american eagle 18x9.5(6" BS) and it fits fine. I have a 305/45/18. Comes out to be 28.8ish calculated and about 28.25 actual.

Thanks Agreif. Where did you buy those wheels and how much of a dent in the wallet were they??

 

to get the 9.5" wide weel I had to get AE to make a custom batch of 10 sets. I don't believe they even make the x8's any more. The wheels came out to be about $250 each.

 

How did you get ahold of AE??? Thank You for your help!

 

BTW the only way to get the American racing torque thrusts ST in a 18 is to find someone with used ones WILLING to sell, and thats not easy

 

you might want to pm 1slowz71. he had a set of 18's in chrome. As far as what brand to choice, i would go with boyds.

 

american racing bought boyds wheels out he no longer makes them ae makes them and puts the boyd coddington name on them now

 

Ahhh I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing.

 

Ditto.

PS: Boyd is a CHODE.
