Just found out that they are the wrong bolt pattern I will take them back in tomorrow and have them re-order them. They only take 2 days to get and the tires won't be here till next week, so its fine. I was there when they were ordered and I know he told them the right bolt pattern, but here's a pic of them setting up there just barely on the lugs without suspension compressed.

They took the wheels back and I told them to send me some 20X9.5's for the rear so I will be 8's in front and 9.5's in the rear. They should be here on Friday.

How tall are those tires? And do they mount up "square" shoulders on an 8" rim?

Looks like wheel fun at your place!

4.5" bs on the front wheels and 5.5" bs on the rear wheels. I might switch to a 245/35/20 up front because the 275's call for 9.5-11" wide rim. I'll see next week. The 275's would really bulge up front I think. They are also both runflats.
