Like I mentioned above, it will be in your best interest to take your truck to a local (reputable) tire/wheel shop and let them help get some accurate measurements for you. It can be a costly mistake....

For instance, check out this thread... link.

I just ordered my set.

Got the gun metal with 20X8.5 (4 3/4" Backspacing) and 20X10 (5 1/2" Backspacing)

I'll be running 245/40 and 295/40 BFG tires also.

I think the 255/25 and 295/45 will be a bit tall.

***I'm running cool ride bags w/ CPP Modular spindles***

Below is a truck (not mine) I found running the same tire size I plan on using but on Torq Thrusts.

*vegaschevy* · 08-14-2009, 12:04 AM

back to the top for those who might not have seen it.

large tires on 20" wheels. What are you running? I would love ot know. I want to run a good size 255 tire up front and a 285/295 tire out back. i would prefer a 45 series tire but would do a 40 series.

crawdadfox · 08-14-2009, 08:02 AM

My old 72 with a 4" front 4 1/2" rear drop with 295/40/20 on 20x10's and 255/40/20 on a 20x8 1/2" up front.

CheyenneShop · 08-14-2009, 10:46 PM

CRAWDADFOX - that is one sick truck!

kingnothin_36 · 08-15-2009, 12:02 AM

Do you have to do any cutting to get the 20x10 wheels to fit in the rear? I want to do the same setup with mine. Thanks.

chuckmc8 · 08-15-2009, 04:44 AM

I like da red truck......

crawdadfox · 08-15-2009, 04:58 AM

Thanks guys! No cutting at all....just had to "clean up" the the hub area of the rotor and put a little beat down on the dust cap and they went right on. Side note the 295's on the 10" wheels looked huge on the back!

big_al_71 · 08-15-2009, 08:29 AM

Here is my truck as it sits today with the new drop 4/6 from ECE
18x8 235/50/18 4 1/2 back spacing and 20x10 rears 295/45/20 5 inch back space no issues at all...

I'm not sure where you got that price,... but I think it is incorrect. The last time I checked Newstagia Wheels,... 20x8 TorqueThrusts were close to $450-$500 each.

fatboys69 · 08-15-2009, 01:59 PM

I have a Autocad file for a spacer for the center caps so you dont have to modify the front hubs or beat down the dust caps. Thickness needs to be
1/4" for the material. If anyone wants a copy just send me an email or PM me and I'll be more than happy to send it to you. I have sent several out allready to many other board members and they work great.

My turd...currently redoing backhalf. 20x10's back with 295/40's and 18x8.5's up front. Want 20's up front.

big_al_71 · 08-16-2009, 04:46 PM

OldSkool71 · 08-16-2009, 09:33 PM

It's hard to believe that someone out there isn't running 20's all the way around on a 4/6 drop. Does it just not work well?

ebfabman · 08-17-2009, 07:46 AM

One more time. 20's 2.5 drop spindle one full coil cut in front 6inch drop spring in rear

Hoffman65burb · 08-17-2009, 12:08 PM

Great looking trucks, love the gun metal

I was looking at the summit prices, but they dont come in 5x5, the closest is 5x4.75, http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ARE-105M28561A/

Aarons72 · 08-17-2009, 03:41 PM

20x10 5.5 BS 275.35.20
20x8.5 5 BS 245.35.20

Most people don't go with 35 series but I like the look. Backspacing is fine but I would like the fronts pushed out a little bit more. The grinding of the hubs was not that bad but it was required and remember to paint your brakes and everything all up cause everything shows

Oops,... I thought you were talking about AR's Torque Thrust II's (which is a 2-piece wheel). Those are the Torque Thrust-M's (which is a 1-piece wheel) available in the new Camaro and Mustang Backspacing. Sorry.

Anyone have a real close up picture of these wheels? Talked to Coys today....no longer carry the chrome with a 5" BS, can only get 5.5 BS. Has a shippment coming in mid Sept and says its 90% sold.

I decided to go with with these instead of the Foose wheels. Price was exactly the same. But you end up with more of a lip due to the fact yo can only get the Legends in a 6.25 BS (20x10's anyway)

Ill be ruuning 20x10 with a 5.5 BS and 295 40 and 20x8.5 with 4.75 BS and 255 45's.

Anyway if some one has some close ups that would be great.
