If your truck isn't lowered than the Ralley Wheel should fit. If you lower the front the control arm (?) might rub the wheel on sharp turns. I am not sure of this is what you are looking for.

what I'm looking for is..
the wheel vin. rallyes come in two flavors for these trucks (5by5 lug)
8" with 4" backspacing and 8" with 5" backspacing..

I know an 8" wheel isn't an issue.. but want them centered in the well, meaning I hate the look of cars that you can fit a 4by4 between the tire and the body ..
but don't know if 5" will suck the tire/wheel to far in from the body..
or in the front,limit turning

my rears now are 10" and 4" backspace, so I'm thinking 4" in the back.
but my fronts are 5.5 so I posted as it seems 8" wheels are the norm. for people running 15" wheels..
20" look great on these trucks look semetrical to the wheel opening but, most 20" wheels look like crap, style wise..
60's,70's designed wheel styles look like crap when opened up to 20"+
thats just my opinion...
now if someone made 20-22" rallyes.. it may or maynot look stupid, but they may fall into the same mess that cragarSS,torque thrust d's ,etc fall into, just not looking right that big..

oh and the other thing,, the 15" rallyes are not an arm and a leg.
some wheel makers think wheels are gold and price them that way..
400+ for a wheel cast in china.. sorry nope..
sorry for the rant..
just looking for what backspace to run..
