    Yeah it would have been nice to know that these only work with factory wheels. I wouldn’t have ordered had I known that.

    they definitely don’t only work with factory wheels, just need less backspacing than your wheels have.

    That’s what the lady at Rago told me, that they designed these with factory wheel specs.

    which means equal to or less than factory backspacing, so your current wheels must have more than factory backspacing (or wider) and that’s why you are rubbing.

    Nobody in the off-road world will willingly buy wheels with more than factory backspacing because you can’t run a larger tire or have the body protection from the tire Sticking out. By that theory, their “guaranteed to fit” Is based on people building their truck for off-roading. You just need new wheels.

    Im looking at buying a house next year that hopefully will be a lower monthly payment than i pay now. Plus might have double the income to spend on a house (a ring may or may not be in the works:D) Im sure too after all this mess is over with house prices will be way down.

    I’m not even sure of the specs on my wheels, they are what came on the truck. Oh well, I’m definitely not going to buy some new wheels just to make some LCA skids fit! Lol

    I’ve entertained the idea of different wheels with mudders for off-roading, and these current wheels with ATs for daily driving.

    My son was renting and decided to buy and found it was cheaper to buy than rent and he went from an apartment to a nice house.
    I am doing some repairs to mine right now to sell it, I have a house that is too big for me. I have 2 bedrooms a bath and basement I never use or even go into. I will be building a much smaller house for sure and build a really big shop.

    You should just build a big shop with living quarters above it (unless you don't like stairs). Then everything could be climate controlled and on less land.
