Rims for B3000 1994?
I'd like to replace my stock 14x6 rims with 16 or 17 inches with higher profile tires. Make it look a little bit more like a truck.
How do I know what rim will fit? What are universal fit or how to use adaptors.
Any info will be appreciated.
tks

RE: Rims for B3000 1994?
I can't answer most of your questions, but also be aware that when you got to a taller tire, your speedo and especially the gearing of the truck will be changed. You may be effectively changing the final drive ratio from 3.73:1 (or whatever the OE final drive gears are) to feel and act more like 3.08's. You'll lose bottom end power and torque. The extra wheel/tire weight will only reduce actually fuel mileage and to some extent, power.
Unless you plan to compensate with new rear gears or a speedo drive gear change, your speedow/read much lower than your actual speed and the odo will reflect fewer miles driven.
