so i just got some more info from the manufacturer of those wheels(which btw is the only way to buy them for a good price)

they are:
20x9
8x6.5
5.5" backspace
-25 offset
Black Diamond finish

he said that in order to fit on a dodge they would need to center bore the wheels to 127mm, from 117mm. does that sound like the right size? he said they are made to fit chevy 8 lugs, and that they have a smaller hub.

thank you!

I dont think there should be a problem with the center ... people exhange dodge and chevy 8 lug rims all the time... I know the rims I had before these I sold to a buddy with a dmax..... maybe I am wrong but I wouldnt think there should be a clearance issue there

i was just looking at the specs on your recoils for kicks, and there site says they have a 130.8 center bore. so i guess the wheels center being bigger than the hub isn't a big deal. so i should be fine if they want to bore them to 127.

i hope i can fit 35's without rubbing, these ICCE wheels have a 1" larger backspace than yours

wow thats quite a bit of difference... but I still will venture to say that you will be able to clear them with minimal rubbing ( maybe on the black plastic of the inner fender well... from what I have seen ....

GET OUT OF HERE! you just ruined everything lol. jk jk
that does look sweet though, i looked at those and wondered what they'd look like on red. very nice! i just thought they were a little radical for me, with the red in the wheel. looks sick though really!

well i have the toyo a/t on right now, and haven't been to impressed with the miles. they're okay.

i might try the nitto terra grapplers though, i hear mixed opinions on them, but they seem solid.
probably no better than the toyo's.

and then i guess i just have to wait and see if i can fit 35's without rubbing, otherwise i guess i'm running 305/55r20's

I got ya... well just fyi... I got the Dick Cepek FC II's and I LOVE THEM, very smooth ride, very quite and seem to be wearing great.... I also like the Mickey Thompson ATZ's never had a set but really like the looks of them

so with 5.5" backspacing and -25 offset, my wheels should hang out about 2" wider than stock?

or about an inch wider than a 4.5" BS with the same offset.

i'm not thinking of this backwards right?! so i should be able to clear 35's slightly easier than tclapp in theory. atleast as far as inner wheel well & control arm rub. where are the most common rub points?
