24.5 Big Truck Wheels

[mr.limited04]

I have a set of 24.5 big truck wheels trying to see do I need to have them machined down to a 24 or will they work like they are?

how much lift do you have?

[mr.limited04]

Im actually going to lower it 3/5

Then most likely your going to have to have them shaved in order to run a lower profile tire. There are some killer pics of a white one on here somewhere that did the same as I think your planning. Looks awesome!

What do I have to get milled down?

[campbellflage]

If your wanting to run a low profile tire you have to get the rims milled to run a 24 inch tire instead of a 24.5 inch semi tire. Tennessee wheel and tire does it I believe, but any good machine shop should be able to do it.

Do mill the lip down or is it sum else

Idk if I've seen 24.5s yet. Seen 22.5s though.

[Jerry@tx]

its not the lip, your lip is already 24. It's more the outside where the fatties hold onto the wheel.

So what has to be done?
