Looking at getting a 6 inch lift on my truck. I am also wanting to get 17 inch wheels (instead of the more common 20 inch). Going to run a 35x12.50 tire.
At Rough Country it says 20 inch only. At BDS and Zone, they actually state 17, 18, and 20 inch will fit. That leads me to believe those wheels will fit the Rough Country kit, too. I'm not decided on what kit to get yet but have any guys with a lift run 17 inch wheels?
Looking at the knuckles in these kits they are all basically identical. Same with tie rods. I'm looking at a wheel that matches what BDS says: 17x9, -12mm offset, 4.5 inch backspacing.
Wheel fitments
Rough Country (Doesn't even take the time to write wheel specs in general)
I'm going to say that they are probably incorrect?
BDS
Zone Offroad (same thing, basically)

Requires 20" or larger wheels! Does NOT fit 18" or smaller wheels.
