Anyone have any experience with DIP wheels--w/ Pics

I was looking for some wheels and ran across these. Nice looking with a nice price tag.

Thanks
18x8.5 38mm backspacing

38mm offset? That would be around 6.2" backspacing. They look nice. How much do those puppies weigh?

Not sure on the weight, aren't stock wheels 6" backspacing?? That would give me about an aditional .8" of width towards the outside of the truck if my 6" stock measurement is correct.

Well, depends on what wheel came stock on your truck. The 18x7.5's had 5.5" of BS. I think that BS is just about right to keep it even with your fenders or maybe just a slight protrusion.

I have the factory FX4 Wheels. Not sure if those are 5.5 or 6 inch BS. That's why I need all ya'll to help out. I want 18's so I can run my stock tires since they only have 12k on them. Then when the funds are around I'll look at beefing them up a bit.
