if i had the money, i would get the mountain crusher. i think those ar soooo badass. they have the rugged off road look with a pinch of luxury SUV class.

 

Yeah, they are pretty sweet! Looks super cool. I do like that look too, but why are they illegal? I mean the real ones, why are they illegal??? :beaver:

I am not sure exactly why they are Ryan, but here are what the real ones look like.

I do see them though from time to time of rigs on the road.

They fail two DOT stress tests.

 

There are a lot of folks out there that have no idea what backspacing is or how to measure it. This includes lots of employees of Discount tire company, Pep Boys, 4Wheel Parts, and other companies that sell wheels, and myself. If you ask 3 different people how to measure backspacing or offset you are likely to get 8 different answers.:cry:

Mail order warehouses are the worst. They will convince you that they know what they are talking about when they have no clue. You might get, " Sure, these Chevy wheels will not cause a rub on your shock mounts, they have 6 on 5.5 backspacing... we have a Punter 7900 balancer and a ˟˟˟˟er road force adapter... what's your credit card number?"

All I can suggest is to buy from someone you can easily return to if you have problems. If you buy through internet or other mail order means you are very likely to have a hard time fixing rubs or balance issues. Demand a test fit or 100% return guarantee from a reputable local shop. Otherwise you may get damaged, bent or ill fitting wheels.

 

Here are the specs for my '96 rims:
Bolt Pattern: 6X5.5
Backside Spacing in/mm: 4.925/125
Offset in/mm: 0.475/12.07

I know what you mean. I nearly bought wheels from tirerack.com when the sales monkey told me his wheels weighed 10lbs less than stock each. I checked it out on a few other websites and found out his wheels weighed more like 2lbs lighter than stock. Beware of some of those jackasses, they tell you anything!
