: Moto Metal 951 18x9 w/Toyo 285/65/18 AT pics BansheeBruce 12-25-2006, 10:42 PM Some of you have asked, here are the pics. They only stick out about 1 inch in front. I cranked the TBars about 6 turns. Rides great too. http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r144/BansheeBruce/IMG_1411.jpg http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r144/BansheeBruce/IMG_1409.jpg Z71offroader 12-26-2006, 12:49 AM looks good! i plan on getting the 951s in that size as well. id like to see some more pics of the whole truck as well GMC2500HD 01-22-2007, 09:41 AM What is the backspacing/offset of those wheels you have? I am planning on either 16's or 18's myself right now. Z71offroader 01-22-2007, 01:28 PM -12mm offset which is alittle more than 4.5" BS GMC2500HD 01-22-2007, 02:21 PM Stock wheels are 16 X 8?, and the 18X9's with the -12 should be the same, but I was looking at possibly running 18X8's so not sure what the ideal width should be. Guess I will go back to posting in my other thread so that I can get proper answers. Thanks Swampfox 01-22-2007, 03:20 PM Stock wheels are 16 X 8?, and the 18X9's with the -12 should be the same, but I was looking at possibly running 18X8's so not sure what the ideal width should be. Guess I will go back to posting in my other thread so that I can get proper answers. Thanks Stock pyo's are 16x6.5's with a 5 or 5.5 backspace. HEAVYdutyDMAX 01-22-2007, 04:53 PM I have the same exact wheels but mine seem to stick out way further, it could also be the wider tires too though. I like the look, but it makes a mess quick. GMC2500HD 01-22-2007, 05:26 PM Heavy Duty, what BS/offset are you running on your wheels? HEAVYdutyDMAX 01-22-2007, 06:13 PM Im pretty sure my bs is 4.5. GMC2500HD 01-22-2007, 06:14 PM Ok cool thanks, that will help me when I order. HEAVYdutyDMAX 01-22-2007, 06:17 PM Yep, no prob. GMC2500HD 01-23-2007, 07:03 AM Well the most popular version of those wheels is the 18X9 -12MM with 4.5BS so I am thinking that is the one... Highmark 02-08-2007, 09:56 AM Well the most popular version of those wheels is the 18X9 -12MM with 4.5BS so I am thinking that is the one... Maybe I'm not understanding BS correct but isn't a -12 offset a 12mm offset to the inside of the wheel giving it a BS of about 4.03 on a 9" wheel? Isn't +(positive) offset moving the mounting location to the outside of the wheel and -(negative) moving to the inside (brake) side of the wheel? I'm looking at 18x8.5 or 9's and figure I need a +25 offset on the 8.5 and I would still be out 1.625" Stock wheel is 6.5 wide with 4.875 BS leaving 1.625 from mounting to outside rim of wheel. 8.5 wide with +25mm (1 inch) is (4.25+1) 5.25 BS leaving 3.25 to the outside rim of wheel for a diff of 1.625 farther out. DEN 02-09-2007, 02:08 PM I have looked on here but not found it, this is the closest thread so far. New here, thinking of buying an 06 or 07 Chevy CC 4x4 D/A. My question is. Would a set of 305/70/16 BFGs rub on a set of these 951 wheels? (16x9 4.5 bs) I know I would have to crank torsions or buy a leveling kit but is that it? I ultimately want 285's but have the 305's now on my current truck and they are like new. Just trying to save $800.

I was just stating what appears to be the popular setup for purchasing those wheels at this time. Most will run a 4.5BS and that offset. | ||
