Boyd Cottington smoothie ll's, can be ordered with custom backspacing. Check my build thread (link below) for the specs as I don't remember at the moment.

Re: Aftermarket wheels- Lets see em!

very nice, im doing a static 3/4 drop on my truck ive already got the rear springs and panhard bar waiting for front springs and i dont want to lower the truck until ive got my wheels and tires. im going with a two tone paint scheme orange on black with a silver pinstripe to seperate the two. the idea behind the build will to make a chevrolet harley davidson truck since all they have now is f150 harley trucks. so im still looking to see whats out there. i really need to start a build thread just havent got to it yet.

You can never go wrong with 15's either. AR Hopsters 15x8's with 255/60/15 front, 275/60/15 rear.
