So I've been looking at getting new wheels for my truck and I've found a rim I'm in love with. But as with anything I like there is a hold up. The wheels I like have a BS of 5.14" and I need 4.25" or less. Is there any way I can make this work?

 

Not sure why you need 4.25 inches of BS, but most offroad styled wheels for our trucks have 4.5 inches of BS like the OEM wheels.

 

Fabtech recommends 3.75" of BS but I've come to find that 4.25" will work fine. My stock tires on my stock rims with 4.5" of BS rubbed on the spindles pretty bad. I've found plenty of rims with 4"-4.5" of BS which would work fine but the ones I really like have 5.14" as stated. Could I run a 1" spacer to make it 4.14" of BS?

 

You could but I wouldn't. Wheel spacers can cause issues with vibrations.

 

Okay looks like I'll have to look for something else then. Thanks for the help Wandell.

 

that sucks man. i agree though, wheel spacers aren't something i would mess with.
