the difference is 1" of width.

and yes 6x135


you really gave us no information what so ever to tell you what to go with. tell us backspacing, desired tire size, 2 or 4wd, leveling kit lift kit or stock, etc

lol....sorry, i didnt want to be one of those guys asking the same questions over and over...

this is what my project is going to be..

6" stage 2 pro comp lift with 20x9 motto metal wheels wrapped with 35x12.5x20 rubber.

i have no idea what the back spacing is ( i dont even know what it means ). im pretty new at this "game" and am just learning.

im hoping that is going to be a nice combo.....

i guess my question is.......is 20x9 or 20x10 inch rims.....i dont really want the rubber "sticking out" far from the truck. i really like nice clean lines/look.

I have an 09 screw with 6in. BDS lift, Moto metal wheels, and 35x12.5x20 wheels. My wheels have a 4.5in back space and stick out little on each side. I think it looks good sticking out just a bit, more agressive look but doesn't stick out extremly much. I have them pictured to give you an idea. Hope this helps you.

Backspacing is the distance from the mounting surface of the wheel (where it bolts to the hub) to it's rear edge. The most common offroad style wheels for the 04-11's are 9 inches wide with 4.5 or 5 inches of BS. A 9 inch wheel with 5 inches of BS will stick out 2 inches farther than your OEM wheels while one with 4.5 inches of BS will stick out 2.5 inches farther than stock.
