Problem !!

TheViking · 08-08-2009, 02:00 PM

I'm trying to buy some wheels for my 05. I have the 2" Leveling kit and 325-70-17 tires. I want to keep the same wheel size as the stockers I'm running now. I went to Discount Tire today to look through their catalog and picked out quite a few different wheels, Rockstars, American Racing, Moto's, etc. According to the Discount Tire guy there is NO 17" wheel out there that will fit my truck! WTF?
We looked at offsets and the wheel would need to be a +32-+50mm and there is nothing. Some of you have to be running this setup. What did you do?

Check these websites;

They have just about every wheel covered for our trucks. I definately know that the XD Hoss comes in 17 X 9. Let us know if you need more help.

I was also looking for wheels that wont stick out and stress the front end. I found Walker Evans racing wheels. Black or polished, also have simulated bead locks in different colors. High strength wheels in 17x8.5 or 20 inch with up too 6 inch backspace. Perfect for our trucks and nice looking wheels. $325 each. Thought of buying factory aluminum wheels and getting them powder coated black but would probably cost more than buying wheels.

I wanted to try and give Discount the business since they advertise on here.

8" wheel +25 would be fine.

Why do you want so much offset? I run -12mm with 4.75" BP and does not rub at all with 35x12.50 Toyo MT's.

Check Cetnerline, they can make a custom wheel for you. WARNING! They are a pain in the arse to deal with, they jacked mine up 3 times, and didn't make it right (I have 2 4.5" BP, and 3 4.75" BP). Enter at own risk.

Got mine for only $170!!

$50-75 per wheel for powdercoat... I've sold a few sets of alloys for $200 a set.

I always run powdercoated stockers. they fit right and they're cheap
