Boss 338 Wheels - Back Spacing Problem
Hey guys... I know there are a lot of post about this... and I think I have read most of them... but does anyone know why Boss doesn't make their wheels with decent backspacing. I have a set of 15x10's on my truck now with 3.5 inch backspace... the tires and wheels fill the fender well very nicely. I really want a set of the boss 338 wheels but the off sets they offer don't give me the look I'm going for. (I don't really want to use spacers)
Does anyone know of a wheel that looks similar that has better backspacing options for our trucks? I am leaning toward torq thrust II's... but really like the boss wheels much better. Thanks as always guys.... |

Most wheels made for newer rides offer limited bs options. I went to 6lug to get more options than a 5lug. Foose should allow for any bs you want.

Re: Boss 338 Wheels - Back Spacing Problem
Here is a picture of the truck before I started the restoration (5.3, 4L60E, wilwood brakes all the way around). I really like the deep dish look of these wheels... just want something bigger (17" or 18").
