I see that the plans show a 6" rim to be used but i'm currently looking at a set of 5" rims. Does the actual rim diameter have to be 6 or will 5 work also?

The only real difference is 1/2" less of ground clearance with the 5" rim.

Yea, I am finding alot more 5" rim options and think i'm going to go with a set of 11 X 7.10 X 5 in the rear and 11 X 5.5 X 5 in the front (slicks). The rims are going to be 7 X 5 and 8.5 X 5. They are a mounted set so they do fit.

Im sure these will work and look fine, but if you guys see any red flags or know something i dont (im new to all this) please let me know.
Thanks playas
