I do this bc there aren't enough wheel posts on here. I have one simple question, I have a 04 2.5 lift and 245/75/16 destination mt's. I know that there are soooooo many wheels on the market. I just want to know the spec's from your aftermarket wheels. I would like to know width and offset and maybe a pic or two. I am thinking about the soft eights but what else would be a good wheel for about the same price? Please help me out. Thanks Garrett

well I run AE Series 137 wheels that are 16x8"with 4.5" backspacing. I don't have wheel spacers and the rubbing was fairly severe on the back end of the bumper and the pinch weld so a lot of trimming was made to compensate for that and now all is cured.

Now for the pics:

I take it that you mean the back end of the front bumper?

no they are not....but i'll tell you what they are...HELL to clean is what they are, and when going through mud they just collect stuff, so that is the only CON to them, I love the look and the looks that come with the modded libby

Are there any beadlocks that will fit around our rotors, with the right backspacing and everything?
