    Hello Forum,

    I went to Google Image & typed in "Tacoma with Helo Maxx 6" & I saw this pic that caught my eye:
    [​IMG]

    When I clicked on the pic I saw that it is chris4x4's truck. Very nice! I like chrome wheels & I like how the 18"'s look on these trucks because they still allow for some sidewall (275/65 or 285/60).

    I would like to know what the offset & backspace is on these wheels. Also, do you, chris4x4, or anyone else running these wheels, have any pics showing how far they stick out of the fenders. I'm hoping it's not too much but more than my 16x7's with 30mm offset & 5.5 backspace.

    I honestly like my current set-up but I wish they would stick out more. I've thought about Spidertrax Spacers so that I can wear down my tires before going to the 18" set-up but I am concerned about the safety factor of spacers. I have driven through some rough terrain & I am afraid that a spacer will crack & I lose a wheel.

    I am running the following set up:

    Thanks!

    Thanks Chris!

    Exactly the pics that I want to see.

    BTW, Great trade in on your Tacoma! These trucks really hold their value! How many miles were on it?

    Also, Any balancing issues? My truck is smooth all the way up to 110MPH but my wheels take balancing weights on the inside & outside. Any special procedure for balancing them?
