Smile my new rims take a look

I got my rims in today. Tell me what you think. They are 15x8 with 4.5 back space. Is that alot of back space? My truck is lowerd 4.5 in the front. Im using 255/60/15 in the front. I got a probleme with the tie-rod end tutching my lip. The salesman told me not to worry hell sell me spacers. Does that sound ok to you?

Say no to Spacers

I have welded a bump stop to my control arm. The wheel can clear as little as a 1/16" and you will be fine.

Thank you for your comments. I am sorry but I dont know what brand they are. In the book they are caled RTX series 135 but on the box they are caled evergrate. I cant find them on the net under both names. Annyways I only paied $144 each cdn + taxes. In total it was $666 center cap included with 24 lug nuts,and free install + ballance and free valves as well. Who said you have to switch to 5 lug to get nice wheels?
