Well once I get the new tires in the next month ill be needing wheel spacers to push the tire away from my lift spindle on my Rough Country lift..... Wat is a good brand that is very reliable? I was looking on motorcitybolton.com?? I need some feedback guys I have no clue once it comes to this and I can't afford new wheels along with tires at this time lol

I got mine on ebay as well. I purchased mine from Motorsport-Tech. I would say that if you intend to get over 1/4" spacers you need to go to an adapter with new studs and if you use and adapter it MUST be wheel and hub centric. I think that my 1" spacers were $285 shipped and they are wheel/hub centric.

Well I just got off the phone with discounttiredirect.com..... I can get a full set of MB v-drive 20x9 wheels, and 305/55r20 tires for $1960! Mounted, balanced, and shipped to my house. With the install lug kit. Im sure this is a great deal, can anyone give me some thought?

need to get up with discount tire and ask what the back spacing is, doesn't look like the 18 indicates the back spacing. 4.5 inches = 114.3mm

Do you have a suspension lift out just a level? The 18 is the offset. Offset is the distance from centerline of wheel to the mounting flange

I've got a rc 6 inch and it requires a minimum of a 4.5 backspacing? Can I get away with a wheel with a -6 offset?
