22's and 24's on s10 questions...

i just opened up my shop and have a had a few wheels companies i work with basically offer me free wheels for my s10.. im already deciding i'm going 22's in the front with a 245/20/22 which is only .8in taller than the tires i have on there..

my question is:

will a 255/30/24 tire fit in the rear of a bodydropped s10?it's traditionally bodydropped 3 3/4in, on the rockers. the tires have a total height of 30in... i know i can get a set of 3 piece wheels made for it with the right backspacing and width.

has anyone done 24's on the rear or know what it takes or if its even possible on a bd'd dime?

i have sd 4link, notch, and 2500's...

There have been 2 that I know of done so far with 24"s in the rear. But I have never heard of a 245/20/22.

im actually in the process of hunting and gathering for the parts to do it to mine, mine is body dropped 3 3/4 just run a 275/25/24 and shorten the rear if need be, and i def. never heard of a 245/20/22, maybe 245/30/22?

yes it is possible and has been done

Heres a few pics of gil's s10 with 24"s all the way around:

And heres Ricos s10: It was for sale not sure if he ever did sell it.

Maybe this well help you.

Rico's truck wound up being parted out then sold for next to nothing. The Bed went on a truck that moved to Michigan & got drug to death(now destroyed) and the hood is on my truck (still in Fl).The 24's came all the way up to the top of the bedsides but did fit, I've seen it in person.

im sorry, i mis-typed the tire size... it's a 245/30/24... i have no idea what i was thinkin with a 245/20/24 lol... i've seen rico's truck before.. and i've seen the one from aftermath too... isn't gil's stock floored though?

i've seen pics of rico's on some 15in wires from a show somewhere in texas, i couldve sworn..

so, im guessing that it comes down to the height of the bed sides on a dime then? and i'm thinking now that i can run no wider than a 8.5 or 9 in in the rear with the right offest..anyone happen to know the height of the bedsides of a dime from rocker to rail?

Use a tape measure? I bet it would look sick. Those two blue one's are badass. Should look sweet tho. Good luck.

what the fuck kinda shop are you trying to run if you cant just grab a tape measure or see if you have the skill to get it done just my 2 cents

i dont know bout the tires but who the hells ferrari is that sittin next to the s dime . i mean if u got a ferrari thats kick ass but of all trucks why u doin an s-10 if u got that kind of money . just sayin u know. go big.
