Crager soft 8s for like $80 each. Thats my next wheel move... Steel rims, a bit heavier, but better for the long excursions.

Those are the rims I want, need adapters though. So that will be after the "need bigger" stage

I am running an 8.5" wheel with a +15 offset. 32" tires mounted and no spacers. more than a 1/2" clearance. No problems. The wheel were custom cut and non returnable though. I used this web site to calculate what I needed. http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp I ordered my wheels from Wheel Pros.
