rims and offset
What is the desired backspacing for the f150? I will more than likely use the 305 70 r16 tires and I like the Weld typhoon rims. I have seen them advetise a 9" width in this rim and that sounds great, but does anyone know if they will work for my truck? If not I guess it will be the 8" wheel.

The backspace on our trucks stock wheels (7 1/2" wide) is 4 1/2". You can start from there.
