I think these have similar measurements to the stock wheel regarding backspacing. Not sure if this is the style you are looking for but it seems like a really good wheel.

If you're not shy spending $$$ visit http://www.ricksontruck.com.

For about $3400 you'll have real truck wheels and get at least 4 times as many miles out of any tires you put on.

Yep but the tires probably cost atleast 2X......

Would be cool though I guess. Not sure what kind of off road Knobby type tires they would have to fit wheels like that though?

Actually you can find some real reasonablly priced tires, and by the time you factor in the increased miles you will get out of them, they end up being cheaper. I have Kuhmo KRD02's on my Dodge. They M+S rated and have a nice tread pattern. If I recall correctly, they were around $160.00 per tire. Michelins and Goodyears are a little more pricey, but still not out of control. I do not have a good photo in the gallery now, but I will add one.
