    Post some more pics on 3rd gen! Considering this wheel due to it's relatively light weight nature, but would love a sense of how it would look on a white lifted 3rd genner

    Thanks!!!! I have the Bilstein 6112/5160 suspension w/light racing uca, and Dakar medium leafs in the back. Tires are 275/70s. I went full lift on the suspension 2.5 inches with a lean plate for the left. Just installed a low pro SOS front bumper and winch. Front currently sits at 38 1/2 inches. Back is at 39 1/2. All that might change a fractions as the sliders go on tonight!! :)

    What tire size are you planning to run with the wheels? If you are planning a 265 then you will be fine. Anything bigger and you "might" run into rubbing issues. Every truck is a little different. Some people have no issues and some do. I am running 275/70. The additional size along with the offset of these rims means the caster is going to play a part in getting things to not rub (front and back). There is caster adjustment built into the stock setup. It sometimes isn't enough though. I ended up going with the light racing uca because it has both camber and caster adjustment. Here is a great video explaining the added functionality of the light racing control arms. Skip to 1:15 for the explanation.

    No spacer needed with these wheels.

    Measured like a true tuner :) What are the first things you reduce when upgrading a performance street car? Its ride height and wheel weight of course :) I went with these wheels because of their weight and their good looks. I sure as hell wasn't going to spend "more money" to make my wheels heavier in the rim department. Dustin comes from a tuner background which is why we have the good fortune of getting a truck built light wheel :) I have the working class volk "aka Enkei rpf 1's" on my WRX :)
