Dumb question.....What size rim should I run with a 20x11x9 tire? I went out to rockymountain's website and tried building a tire and rim package but the rim sizes all seem to be 9x9 or 9x8. Wouldn't a 9x9 wheel mean that it's 9in. tall x 9in. wide? If I want to run a 20x11x9 don't I need an 11x9. I'm friggin confused. Also, can anyone recommend a good axle/hubs? Thanks!

9X9 or 9X8 is the size you need

11" is the width of the rim and the 9" is the rim diameter. So you could run a 20" tall tire by 11" wide, on a 9" rim. But you could go and inch skinnier or fatter on the width part like a 10 or 12"but the rim size has to be exact. Hoped it helped.

RPM makes really good axles, dont get a duracrap. Youshould be fine with stock hubs but you could look into HARDKOR or LSR hubs.
