Dropping them (wheels & Tires ) off in the AM to be mounted.....
Most likely wont go on the truck till the end of Friday....

 

looks good! I would just mount em without the center caps.. we don't need no stinkin centers!
I am thinking about taking off the centers on my factory wheels.

The factory center caps are kinda big and fugly, but the small push through style centers that come with most aftermarkets arent bad

 

The center for these has a nice small logo and look to it..... kinda like to have them to at least cover the fronts....

 

loaded one up for fitmet....

 

Really? White letters with bling wheels?
The fashion police are gonna getcha!

 

Old school Hot rod meets Bling Bling.....

 

What is the BS on those wheels? I've been looking for new wheels on mine and I wanna go w/ the same size tires. I just wanna make sure I get the right BS to clear w/ just a 2" leveling kit installed. I've been seeing numbers like 4.5" and -10mm etc.. Not real sure where the -10mm play a part. BTW those wheels are SWEEEEEEEEET!

 

tas,
These wheels are
17x8.5
15 mm offset
5 3/8 backspace
8 - 6 1/2 bolt......
What you have above will stick "way out"

 

if the BS is 5 3/8", what does the 15mm offset give you? I'd like to eventually put on some Bushwacker pocket flares and I'd like my tires to at least stick out to the edge of the flare.

 

backspace is the rear measure....
Offset is the front...? I think I am no expert... I ask Lorenz from Lorenze Industries about his offset and back space cuz he is running this same wheel in the teflon "THUG" In a day or two I can post photos of the tire on the truck.... Hang on I'll show you what I took today....

 

I guess it's throwing me off because they (wheel mfg.) use two different measurement types, inch and MM.

 

Here is 17x8.5" Wheels w/ 4.75" Backspace with 295s and no leveling kit. no rub. they stick out alot.



By the way Mega, I like your choice!!!

 

I like that look. That's right where I want mine w/ flares. Didn't mean to hyjack!

 

Remember this is not mounted just hanging on the studs
