20 x 15 wheel options?
I really want to try to do Micky Thompson 29x18x20 sportsman radials on my truck but I am not coming up with many options on a 20x15 or 20x16 wheel. Anyone know of any options or a good wheel outlet that may be able to help me out? I am looking for something on the lines of a torque thrust II look. I have found some in the $2500 each range but I just don't think that I can bring myself to pay more than $1000 a piece for back wheels. It looks like short of the Micky's, I am stuck with using a 305/50/20 on a 9.5" wheel. I hate to have all of this room and only use a 305 tire

Coys offers a car 5-lug bolt pattern 20x14 but it's for narrowed rear-ends w/a max back spacing of 4.5". It's available in polished or chrome for < $700ea.

Re: 20 x 15 wheel options?
Yea, I forgot to say that I have a narrowed rear (57") and room for what looks to be about a 17 1/2" tire. The Micky's are 17.2 overall, 15.5 tread. Initial calculations are that I will need 0 offset, give or take an inch. I will have to get a bed mocked up to see some real world numbers though. The Coys look great for the money but that backspacing would definitely not work for me.

Re: 20 x 15 wheel options?
Foose nitrous is very similar to the torque thrust (a little better in my opinion) and it is offered in a few offsets, I can not promise but I am pretty sure they offer 14 or 15 wide. They also have a 2 and 3 piece custom line that is available in polished and chrome. I think they are also in the $700 range but well worth it for the ultimate fit and function-plus killer looks! Also Helo and American Eagle make wheels spitting image of the torque thrust, but I am not sure on widths. If you would like some more info, you can reach me at support@hickmantires.com ask for Tony

Mickey T offers a wide 20" wheel just for its tires. I'm not sure what back spacing they offer. Google them & see what info you can find.

Boyd,Intro,Billet,Bonspeed can build them for you. There not cheap. I was going to go that route but Mickey T is the only company that makes a tire that wide. I went with a 20x12 boyd with 315/35/20's
