I'll check the offset on those rims Darren, the company told me they fit but they are an inch wider than stock so we'll see, I dont mind if the wheel sticks out a bit....

Thats just a picture of what I'm getting............

Nice wheels gig. They'd look better on that 2012 with the pearl/adobe two tone........

Just to report in with y'all, life is good. I worked in Marinette, WI last Monday, did a job in IN mid week on the way home. Now I have to work in Miami Monday. 7 days, 3 job sites, and all that ground covered by my trusty truck. That's about 4500 miles in 10 days, towing my gear along with me.

Yeah, I rely heavily on my truck and love every mile.

Nice looking wheels Gig, I wished i read more on the off-set before I got my wheels with a -6 mm off-set. I like the stance but I can not go with the larger tires I was wanting because they will rub now when I turn.

I don't need spacers, That is why they will rub because my wheels stick out futher than the stock ones. When you turn the wheel now with the tires I have there is less than inch between the tire and the bottom of the rear trim molding. There was less distance before I added the 2.5 leveling kit.

I will! Thanks for the offer. I don't go to Texas much but Arkansas, Oklahoma and Kansas are in my territory. We are trying to get into Texas. You don't happen to know anyone that works for Toshiba American medical systems do ya? Or, anyone that runs an imaging company, x-ray tech, or anything to do with radiology? My company specializes in rigging medical equipment, hard to believe but it's possible to make a living sticking to that specific service.

Keep em between the ditches boys! Beautiful weekend.
