Default Rim Question!

I'm wanting to buy a used set of rims and tires, there like 35x14x20 fuel hostages. Came off an 02 Chevy 2500 hd. There 8 lug, they will fit on my truck right? Just because they came off a Chevy doesn't make a difference does it? And sorry I'm not a tire/ rim expert haha thanks in advance

The bolt pattern should fit. Trying to fit 35's on a factory height truck I think will require a little trimming in the front. And depending on the offset and back spacing you may have rubbing issues when turning. I think I would put one on the front and see how it worked if I could.

Yeah that's what I was worried about the most was the rubbing, but the deal fell through anyway. At least for now how high would I have to lift my truck to clear 20x14? Like 4 inch?

It's not the height of 20x14 that rubs its the width. unless their spaced way out the tires will rub when you turn the wheel. To clear 35's i would say at least 3 inches of lift, but I'm not positive.

Ya that's true, that's another question! Does anyone make a lift kit for a 12v cummins. I can't seem to find any lift kits for 94-97's

Yes, I know that bds does make a 4 and 4.5 inch. Cpp has them but they're expensive.

I believe Superlift has 5" kit too, remember a neighbor here done on his 1999 Ram 2500.

I'll check em out thanks guys for all the help. Also another question what you guys spend on a set of fuel hostages 20x14 with 60% tread left on a set of irocks. I've got the guy at 1800 but seems a little pricy still

Only place I would go for 2nd gen suspension is Dodge Off Road.
