Hopefully somebody has done this and has a good reference point to answer from:

I have a set of 7" Cookies that I want to put under my fiberglass GT flares. What size tires will fit, and when I convert the lugs to 5-lug, (via a drill and stud) will I need spacers? If so, how thick and what length studs?

225's on a 7 in rim. Get more rim and run more tire.. plus a wider rim will make for more tire to the ground vs a skinner rim.ie 9 in rim with 225's will be wider than 225's on 7in rim.

Stock engine doesnt need more than 225. But I like big tires.. dont know how much tire a flare will fit, how wide of flare do you have?

Hope this helps

Andrew
