9 inch rally wheels?

Does anyone know of a source for 9 inch 5 lug truck rallys? All I can find are 8s and 10s. Basically I want to run 8s on the front and have the rear wheels fill out the wheelwells the same amount. (need 1 inch more FRONTSPACE) Are there any manufacturers who make 10s that would fit the bill?

This should be a fairly straightforward process- I'd check with any of the links below for pricing. There may be others, but this is what I found in a quick Google search.

Re: 9 inch rally wheels?

I would prefer a 9 inch wheel if I could find it, but I would use a 10 if it has 1 inch more frontspace than a stock 8 inch wheel.

Re: 9 inch rally wheels?

Stockton Wheel can make you a 10 with any backspacing you want. Just give them a call. Since a stock 15x8 truck ralley has a 4" BS,... just order a 15x10 with a 5" BS. This will bring the wheel "out" 1". I have used them in the past,... just expect to "pay" for their services!

Re: 9 inch rally wheels?

I was thinking the same thing. I have 15x8 all around with 32x11.50 tires. Brothers sells a 15x10 inch rim. Do you think by putting a 10 inch wheel in the rear to fill the wheel well space would look to weird when keeping 8 inch wheels in front ?

Not with the right backspacing it wouldn't.
