A couple companies sell these with the centers relocated. They have a lot of back spacing.

Have you mounted them on your truck yet? They work well with axles from a dually truck, otherwise as stated they have a lot of backspacing.

I run these on my truck and if your stock you need to have them recentered or run a dually front end and a spacer on the rear.

Did you get the runflats with them? If not you can also get those on line at various places.
