I'm 99% sure you can't get Draglites in 6-hole. Even with 5on5 the only sizes are 15 x 12" and up, they made 6" but quit, old stock left only. They have a XP series of Draglites that are a bit different than the 90's, not sure if they have 5on5 in those. Drag rim's in truck bolt patterns are becoming rare, I have a set of Auto Drag's for sale if anyone close to Sask. Canada is looking. If your looking for Draglites, I have one of the last new set's not for sale.

I need a weld rim in 6 lug and the prostars dont come in 6 lug either.

I still need to know what backspaceing I need and how wide can I run my tires on this? someones got to have some on there truck!

I emailed weld and this is what I got:

The closest wheel we make is our Super Single II style in 6 lug; they come with a 3.625 or 4.625 back space.

It looks ok, here are the two together. First one is the super single, second is a Draglite.
