I'm in the market for some rims that will work with the large Yukon hub kit and 16" BBK.

I have a set of aftermarket rims but not sure if they'll work with the setup.

Concerns are wheel width and will the modified hub kit rotor fit within the wheel?

Rims are :
Brand: American Racing
Model: Baja
Part Number: AR1725785B
Color: Satin Black
Backspacing: 3.76
Offset: -6
Wheel Diameter: 15
Wheel Width: 7
Hub Bore: 108.00
Load Rating: 2000
Wheel Exposed Lugs: Yes
Wheel Material: Alloy
Weight: 16.71
Wheel Structure: One Piece
Wheel Style: Bullet
Bolt Patterns: 5x5.5
True Directional: No
Other Colors:
Satin Black

For reference I plan to run 35x12.5 tire
 
Look at what tire you want, the manufacturer will recommend the minimum width for the wheel.

7” is pretty narrow for a 12.5
 
Well if anyone needs some 15x7 rims open box never used, let me know : )

So it's doable but not likely recommended.

I have 12.5" wide tires on 7" rims. You might have a hard time finding someone to mount them, every place I called said they won't mount anything with over a 5" difference in the two. I had to have my friend that works at Big O do it for on the sneak.

Poor man's beadlocks tho

I'm poor or will be poorer after this hub kit project. I was hopeful since I already had these rims but now I'm not too hopeful on getting a set of tires mounted to them.
