BFM Wheels

Sorry if this is common knowledge, but does anyone know why they only make a few rims for 1500 Rams? Too small of a market?

 

[Westwind1124a]

...Just found the answer. The spokes are designed around the lugs. Damn 5 lug hubs!

 

[fastNugly]

You kind of answered it too in your initial post.....limited and smaller market and the 5 lug too being a problem

I wanted a BMF rim too and the one I wanted was an 8 lug

I'd love to have the rehabs... Those things look sick!

Yeah, I have no experience with adapters at all. Screw it, time to trade up to a 2500

Hahahaha....was thinking the same thing at that time

and that is a lame exuse from BMF. They could make the wheels work with 5 lug

Those look badass! The tires look awesome too! What truck do those rims originally fit? Tundra?

 

[Harrisb]

Yup, tundra wheels, +25 offset with a 1.5" adapter makes them -12 offset. Hence the flares...

I was considering on doing this too after Brad came up with this clever idea and a 5 lug conversion is always better than a 5 lug to 8 lug

Only issue for me is the wheels that I want are the 8 lug one and not the 5 lug version.
Damn BMF

SMR 101 has the wheels I want

 

[Westwind1124a]

I couldn't see his rims up close. What is he running?
