what do you guys think

 

I like the MM's better.

 

the moto metal wheels come in 4 different sizes how far would each one stick out. thanks

Back Spacing = 4.52 in.
Offset = -12 mm.

Back Spacing = 5.18 in.
Offset = 30 mm.

Back Spacing = 5.71 in.
Offset = 18 mm.

Back Spacing = 6.18 in.
Offset = 30 mm.

 

im not that smart but im pretty sure the lowest number macspace is the one that sticks out the furthest
EX. the 4" will stick out futher than the 6"

 

robby gordons all the way, otherwise it will look like every other truck. i thought about those wheels long and hard, but went with walker evans instead. still kind of wish i bought the robby gordons........

 

IMO, something different as well such as the RGs, my vote.

It almost is that MM are a factory option since so many people have them now.

 

ya i like the uniqueness of the robby gordons but there 300 a piece

 

you gotta pay to play....

 

Robby Gordon, be different!

 

MM 4 sure!

 

CANES, there are not 4 sizes to choose from, only three. Did you get that info from 4wheelparts.com? they are wrong! Look at what you wrote. You said a 5.18 BS with a 30mm offset, and then said a 6.18 BS with a 30mm offset as well. If the wheel is the same width you cannot have a different backspacing with the same offset.

I ran across this because I am considering those wheels, called them, and they said it was a typo. The 5.18 BS does not exist, although I wish they did.

 

Black Mazzi Hulks! Haha, I just have never seen any on a truck before.

 

A 9 inch wheel with 6.1 inches of BS will stick out about an inch farther than the oem 17's and 18's.
A 9 inch wheel with 5.7 inches of BS will stick out about 1.5 inches farther.
A 9 inch wheel with 4.5 inches of BS will stick out about 2.5 inches farther.

 

Out of those two wheels I would go with the Gordons. But if you are looking to drop that kind of money I would look into Walker Evans. A huge variety of sizes and backspacing

that is why i went with the walker evans over the robby gordon. i had them[walker evans] on my f-150 and they did not stick out, and now i have them on my f-350.
