05+ wheels

Will they fit my truck...its a 2wd. I've heard of the "backspacing", but chaulked it up to being, that you need a spacer to run on 4x4, not 2wd?

I believe Cody put some on his truck & said they will rub when the wheel is turned full lock. He also said the track was off but they look good on his truck.

I had two set of 05 wheels that I needed spacers to use on my 4x4 but the guy I got them from also had spacers on his 2 wheel drive. With a set of 2" spacers they line up where the 99-04 wheels do and look/work fine.

The 05 wheels will fit, but will rub at full lock. They will also sit inside the wheel wells 2" on each side, narrowing your trucks stance by 4".

The spacers will fix that, but its not a huge issue I suppose.
