20x11 wheels....who makes them
I'm starting to look for wheels. I'm going to run some 315/35/20s on a 20x11 wheel.
I really like intro wheels, but they don't list a 20x11. I emailed them to see if they do so we'll see. Anyone else make them that have a more classic look (rather than the big gangsta bling you see on new SUVs) And pictures are always good! |

Re: 20x11 wheels....who makes them
Ackattack, I am running that tire on a 20x10, Toyo tires on TT2s. I thought it would be too wide for a 10" wheel but I think it fits right. My tire guy convinced me to try the 315 first before ordering 295s, he was right imo. Sorry for the fuzzy photo it was the only one I have of the whole wheel and tire.

Re: 20x11 wheels....who makes them
BigSky71 that looks perfect in my book.
The key to remember is that a too wide of tire on a narrower rim will wear out the centers of the tread prematurely. General rule of thumb is a tire tread width equal to the rim width or a plus or minus an inch either way. That isnt to say guys with 13.50 width tires havent installed them on 8 or 9 inch rims. Tire shops are really getting to a point where you have to adhere to their rules like placing correct width tires on correct width rims but its still your choice.The shot BigSky shows looks great to me with very little sidewall bulge at all. I plan on 20x10 rears and 20x8.5 frts for my custom rims and will most likely do a 295/305/315 rear tire myself.

BigSky71.... are you going to have fitment issues running the 315? Do you have to widen your tubs?

Bigsky....that looks good.
What backspacing are you running. What year of rearend (narrow earlier, or wider later). And finally, do the stock wheel wells fit over those without rubbing? Thanks |

With the narrow rearend I am running 20x10s with 3" of back spacing. My whole point of changing out the rear end was to minimize the back spacing on my wheels and get lots of rim lip on the outside. Here is a photo of the what it looks like finished. |

Re: 20x11 wheels....who makes them
I have AR hopsters 20 x10 with 3.5' BS with 285/40/20 on the rear of my 56 chevy pickup.
you should be able to have yours custom built as i did with my american racing hopsters. I believe Billet Specialties, intro, colorado customs all accept custom orders.
