Looking for rims and tires

[hawaiian808]

So im stuck
and im not to great when it comes to tires
the truck came with 36x12.5x16.5
so basicly i have to get new rims because of the odd tire size

now what i cannot figure out is the offset?

my truck is a 1984 and has a 6 inch lift?

so that being said what offset are you guys running? know anyone with used rims for sale that would fit?

Sounds like you had a set of Military tires on the truck. Do a search on Pirate 4x4 I think they have a couple of vendors that have that size tire. Military surplus ofc.

lol i want to say it was wranglers the side walls are tore up so i cant really read crap but i got the size off of the tries by reading each one
i heard the humvee tires are no good for road use?

i have 37" wrangler military surplus tires.

They work well in the rain here, paid 475 for a set of 4 that are 90%+

Love them more than the mudstars on my truck before but the mudstars wore like iron though.
