I have a set of Nitto Terra Grapplers in 285/75/16 that should be hitting my doorstep in the next day or so. I was originally going to go with an Eagle Series 111 wheel in 16x10, 5x135 w/4.5" BS. The place I'm going through for the wheels can't get these right now in that bolt pattern. So, I found another wheel he carries that I like but they only come in a 4" BS with the other measurements being the same.

I'm hoping these would fit since I really like the look of the wheels, but I wanted to run it by you guys here since you've seen a heck of a lot more fitments then I have. The truck is a 2003 F150 Screw 4x4 FX4 with the front T-bars cranked to level it. I don't mind trimming a little plastic up front if need be but I just wasn't sure how bad the 4" BS might be as compared to the normal 4.5" that people usually run. Would the rim in a 16x8 with 4" BS possibly be better or should I just find something with the normal 4.5" BS?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this for me!

 

Nah man a 16X10 will look sick, i have a 16X10 american racing atlas mounted with the same bs. I have 35"s on and i had to trim a inch in the front, thats it....but a 16X8 will look good too, not as wide in stance but still redneck..good luck

 

Thanks Canadian! I told the shop to order those wheels up for me. They should look real nice once I get everything mounted up. Hopefully that'll be next week sometime!

Got any pics of your truck?

 

It will be tight, but I think it will work.

 

Thanks for posting up Wandell. I was on the fence about it until Canadian posted up and I figured "What the hell!" and went and ordered them. Your posting helps solidify that I made the right choice!

These are the wheels I ordered....

 

THose are sweet!

 

Yah those are sick wheels man....thats gonna look real good...yah i have some pics but my digi"s busted i cant get them on here yet...its on cardomain under 01 BIG-Canadian_machine...those nitto grapplers are they good tires? we dont habe them up here

 

Yeah, the Terra Grapplers are one of the best all terrian tires available. Can you get Toyo Open Country AT's? They are almost identical to the Nitto's. I've even been told they are manufactured in the same factory.

 

Yah we can get those toyos, i had bfg all terrains ta"s on b4 my mudders those worked out well.....

 

What is the BS on your wheels wandell?

 

My Eagle 102's and my old 058's both had 4 1/2 inches of backspacing.

 

Is 4.375" close enough?

 

The 4" bs on my wheels seem to look ok with the front bars cranked up. I have the tires mounted and balanced but I cant get the wheels on the truck yet because the wrong lug nuts were sent with the wheels.

Hopefully I can get those in quickly so I can get these bad boys on the Screw...

 

I would think that 4.3 would be close enough.
