Default 16"

Does anyone know the specs for a replacement (non-oem) set of 16" wheels? For 2004 is it 7, 7.5, 8 width? How about off set and backspace?

Also has anyone found other make wheels that will interchange? BMW, gm, etc

Okay follow up question... Tires for 16" oem wheels seem to be anywhere from 215 to 315; 55 to 75 ratio. For a stock non-lifted '04 what fills out the wells best without rubbing?

I had 265/75R16 without issue as long as you aren't planning on articulating that much. They don't rub with normal day to day use, but my two cents are that you should plan out your build and what your end goal is so you don't waste money slowing building up.

I'd say plan on 3 inches of lift and either 255/85R16 or 285/75R16 are your best bets. 295/75R16 can also be done, but those are even less common than 255/85R16s.

^if I could post that over and over again I would.

Always try to plan out what you're going to do so you don't keep buying parts that you should have originally. I've wasted toooooo much money doing that

No lifting, strictly stock height, just trying to put the right shoes on its feet. Seems a 265/75 16 is just about right, right?

265/75 is a great fit, may be a bit larger than you're looking for, but fit the wheel well nicely. Never had them without a lift so I'm not sure.
