20x8 and 20x10 backspacing question
So, as simple as it may be this is one of those things that has always flustered me. For the size wheels mentioned what backspacing would I prefer to run on this truck? It is going to be lowered 5/7 and don’t want wheels rubbing the fender trim but don’t want them way inside the wheel wells either.

Re: 20x8 and 20x10 backspacing question
Hey brother! Yeah man it’s been gone a while. I did a frame off on it and a LS swap. Now I have a new one I’m throwing together. You using the same size and backspace? Any pics of current truck? Hope you’re doing well buddy.

Re: 20x8 and 20x10 backspacing question
Mine is currently a bare chassis. Pics as soon as I get enough to make a build thread. So those are the same size wheels and backspace, that’s nice.

Re: 20x8 and 20x10 backspacing question
The torque thrust 1 piece cast wheels are only offered in the 5x5 in 20x8 & 20x10 in those back spacings anyways. To get a different back spacing you’d have to order the two piece version

Re: 20x8 and 20x10 backspacing question
Correct, but if I have to get different wheels that’s ok too. I’m not 100% set on these. I’d do the Eagle 225s again if I could find a decent deal on some.
