Default 17" rims on a 99.

Do the newer 17" rims work on the older second generation trucks without any modification? I don't see why not, but thought I'd check. I'm looking at these rims and tires, they're take offs, 265-70-17, what do you think? Anyone got any pics of this mod?

Yep, they'll work like a champ...



Pictured are the 17" steelies, but this truck owner recently swapped to the 17" alum ones you posted. They both fit GREAT.

I picked mine up with tires for 500 from a dealership (bought the BFGs seperate), "take off" rims and tires they call em, If a customer wants a lift or larger tires/rims the just pluck em and stick em in storage.

Check Ebay as well

I called the local tire shops and they all had take off's sittin in stock as well, they typically wanted a little more then the dealers though.
