Parts geek rally wheels

Parts Geek sales 15x8 rally wheels in 5"BS, from everything that I read before says 15x8 should be 4" BS. Has anyone purchased these rally wheels before? I know with 5" BS it would be sunk in more, but what other issues would there be? I have CPP lower/upper control arms.

I see 5"BP (bolt pattern) on the 5-lug truck ralleys.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

There is no way some of those wheels have 5" bs.

Re: Parts geek rally wheels

I agree to me it is odd that they would say 5" bs for the rally's when 4" is the standard for C10's... That's why I posted here to see if anyone else has purchased any because I have been monitoring these from time to time and they seem to be selling and they are tempting due to price.

Seems like a good price for new wheels.

We don't know where you're getting your info from.
None of those descriptions of wheels show anything about back spacing.

Re: Parts geek rally wheels

I didn't see any 15x8 5 on 5 Rally wheels on that page, but maybe I was looking at the wrong page.
