About to buy new wheels. Need opinions on BS for Vision torque 143's - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

hey its me · 02-29-2016, 09:23 PM

First off, I apologize for a repeat thread asking about backspace. Vision torque seems to have a bit different options and not many here run them. I'd like final opinions before I order them. Here's what I'm thinking.

Rears- 20x9.5 w 5.25" backspace

Fronts- 20x8.5 w either 4.5" backspace or 5.14" backspace

What other options for the rears do they offer?
Is the truck lowered? If so, how much?

UKNOWME · 03-01-2016, 12:26 AM

I'm running 4.5 in the front and 5.5 in the rear.

Those are the only 20" options I've seen on ebay/amazon in 5x5. I don't know these trucks well enough to even guess how much it's lowered. Here's a pic on 15x10 wheels.

You might want to figure out how much your truck is lowered before buying new wheels

homemade87 · 03-04-2016, 08:29 AM

I dont remember what the front backset is but I do know if you run a 10" wheel in the rear the backset needs to be 5.5" . This is a perfect fit . It centers the wheel and tire right in the middle . I am lowered 4" in the rear and 2.5" in the front with no rub issue at all . Rear is a 18x10 on my 82

The truck isn't on flat ground for me to measure. Currently replacing the heater core and it's not able to move. So anyones guess is as good as mine. Why do you suggest that, anyways?
