Legend.....RIP Ken.

 

Too bad. That happened about an hour from me, and pretty close to my cousin's house.

 

@EatSleepTacos do you grasp backspacing and offset well? Trying to figure out new wheels for the Tundie and have been looking at Method 305's in 18x9 +25mm offset/6" backspacing. I want enough poke to be even with or slightly past a set of Bushwacker flares. I believe the stock 20s are 20x8 +60mm offset from what I can find online.

Will these get me there or do I need a different spec wheel?

 

Does OP still exist? Someone send out a search party! If he doesn't turn up, I nominate @Justanotherhemi for Captain.

 

Seconded

 

I even tagged him to remind him this thread still exists.

What about you guys? Do you understand offset/backspacing well and can help me figure it out? Lol

 

Every time I think I do, I try to explain it to someone and feel like I know even less than I did before I started talking.

 

I used this to help me with my decision. this helps visualize

Here's another option

 

Looking like about 1.9" more poke than stock. Where that lies for you, I'm not sure. Measure 1.9" off the outside of the tire and that's where you'll lie approximately.

 

I’m alive, I think! Just been busy. I understand wheel specs pretty well so I’ll reply more in depth later when I’ve got some time.

 

Get out. This ain’t your house anymore

 

So it's a jeep build thread now?

 

No, somebody's LS swapping a Jimny.

 

Actually. The current project/build is an 07 cummins mega cab dually.

 

A giant of a truck.

 

Purchased at auction as a theft recovery after getting stolen to take the welding bed off

 

I found a bed in Victory, Tx & drove 5 hours 1 way to pick it up

 

They stole it for a welding bed? There a hot market on those?

 

This is the rear after getting a 1” lift block, helper towing bags, & a black rear bumper to color match.
