Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

So with the new wheels having the same issue, does it make any differnce whether I order the -2AA version in 18" or wait for the -3AA version in the 18" to be made?

Depends. I don't know of anyone who has compared the two side by side to measure the hub bore from top to bottom. What I gather from reading elsewhere is that the bore changed in places, but not enough at the "front" side where the interference was an issue on our trucks. My impression is that the required clearancing of the hub is considerably less than previously, but both revisions will require work. It's only an issue up front, so if you don't mind taking a little more material off the front hub and want the wheels right away, -2 is the way to go. If you aren't in a hurry, personally I'd wait for the -3 and not need to remove as much material from the hub. All depends on your needs.
