Well I'm not Scoti, but I can tell ya what they are. Those are American Racing "Torque Thrust II's" on his truck. He has 18's on the front, and 20's on the rear....

as far as i know, for the larger wheels(18"+) you will need to call the company up and special order them. i know you will for 20's

Thanks guys........ Yep, TorqThrust II's. I actually ordered them through my local Discount Tire as they had the best pricing. Don't forget custom offsets are extra too (anything bigger than 17's is considered custom btw).
They are 18x8 w/5.25"bs up front w/255-45 Dunlop SP9000's & 20x10 w/6"bs out back w/295-40 Dunlops. I would rather have 20's all around but I drive it daily now & I fear a 40 series wheel/tire combo would get torn up quickly so I compromised & went w/the 18's. Anything else, just let me know. FYI..... that's GM's factory color, Crimson Red.

18x7 & 18x9.5 are 2 different sizes as well. If you put the same size tire on those size wheels, one of them won't be ideal.
I've never rotated tires on any vehicle I've owned (& I've owned @ least a dozen cars/trucks). If your going to rotate, they should be the same size wheels & tires all around.
