tekazgtr1984 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Hey hey Pathy people, I'm looking for the right wheels to fit my rig once I've got the SFD ready to go. I thought I had the right wheels picked out but as it turns out they don't have sufficient backspacing to fit 33" tires. To that end, I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to what wheels might be ideal. I'm looking for 15x8, preferably alloy (but steel is just fine), in either black, silver (or chrome), or a combination of black/brushed silver. The backspacing would be have to be 3.5" or less, 3.25" would be best. I'm researching as best I can online but so far no luck... Thanks in advance!

01silvapathy Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Wheel Spacers work great for me, they are still tight as the day I put them on about 5 months ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did find these though... (15x8, -32 offset=3.25BS) link Too bad it's only a single wheel... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exit34rocker1017 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 if your into steel wheels, make ones with custom backspacing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekazgtr1984 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 if your into steel wheels, make ones with custom backspacing! I think I've figured out what will work. Obviously, it'll be more pricy but I really don't care at this point. Black Rock Wheels offers custom fabrication for their wheels, so the Viper 900 is totally possible with custom backspacing! Black Rock Wheels Viper 900 Now I can *hopefully* avoid the whole wheel spacer dilemma and still get the wheels I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekazgtr1984 Posted April 20, 2010 Author Share Posted April 20, 2010 Hope is bullsh*t... BR only offers backspacing on their steel wheels... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanAK Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Good to know, I was looking at ordering some Black Rock Alloys but then I found out you could only get 4"BS. Now I am going with some Micky Thompson Classic II that I found and I will have them finished in matte Black. They have a 3.31"BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
