Re: Craigslist 18 inch billet specialties

If I could get a confirmation on backspace I would buy the set and use two of them. I'm putting bags on my truck, so although it's a great deal it's pointless to buy them if I don't know the specs on the wheels. I'm wanting to go with a 9 inch wide wheels on the back.

Same here, like the looks but the backspacing would be the dealkiller. Oh, and shipping them to Washington too.

I checked the website and they don't list 18x8's: http://www.billetspecialties.com/whe...cseries/slc76/ but I suppose they use to, the backspacing looks like it goes all the way from 4.25" to 6.5" for 8.5" wide wheels. Might get lucky and it'll have 4.25".

Thanks, I was hoping to buy my Accuair this week but the deal is just to good to pass up.

Re: Craigslist 18 inch billet specialties

Thanks Nate, I'm hoping at the very least the backspace is 4.5. I think that will work for now.

Re: Craigslist 18 inch billet specialties

Yes, but it's worth a shot. I'll sell them if they don't work out. 800.00 is a bargain.

I guess now I know why that guy wont return my phone calls. They are already sold. O well. This is the one and only bad about this forum. My local deals aren't "local" anymore. I hope they work out for you. Just throwing this out there sduckworth, if you cant pic them up anytime soon I could pick them up for you and hang onto them for you until you can make the trip or I can try and get a hold of the guy for you and go over to his place and check the backspacing for ya. Let me know if I can help you with anything.

Re: Craigslist 18 inch billet specialties

That might be worth the offer to save time and gas.
