18 Inch Wheels
 

I've been searching for 18 Inch Wheels for my truck. I'm still a little confused about back spacing but it seems to be about 6 inchs or so is ok. Am I correct?
I really wanted the Mickey Thompson Classic IIs but they only have a 4 1/2" BS for the 18" wheel.
I want to run Toyo Open Country M/Ts. http://www.toyo.com/tires/tire_lines..._suv/opmt.html

I've attahced this image to list every thing I've found so far. It's slim pickings. If there are other 18 wheels that I've missed post up and I'll add them.

The back- spacing is 6.522 ( someone correct me if that is not correct ) . The stock rim is 8 inches wide , so if you have a wheel with 5.5 back-spacing and it is 9.5 inches wide , it will stick out 2.5 inches further than stock . Check out billetspecialities.com ,and http://shop.sportruck.com/bcodd/34ton/index.html (Boyd Coddington 3/4 ton series ) .
They are pricey but sharp wheels !

Someone contacted Billet Specialties, Gary C I think, and was told that the wheels would crack under the weight of the vehicle (I'm not sure if that is loaded or not). It would be nice if they have actually changed their stance on that. More wheel selection would really be nice.

One thing I see lacking on the site is the amount of backspacing on the wheels. I wonder if you can specify your own when your order, or if they only do them in certain backspacings?
