I am with you 100% on that but I do not have the vast worldly knowledge like you :-) so I was not sure but with your guys help I figured I would come to the conclusion tonight so I can order my wheels and tires tomorrow.
Your offset now has me all screwed up again….lol. My understanding was on that wheel that It has a 4.5 or 5 inch backspace. ( Bottom Line is….. I am trying to copy “”The Silver Stallion’s stance. That same amount that is poking out or a hair less……)
Thank you!!!!!! as you can see that wheel comes in +1 or ~12 in that picture and it does not look right to me but I am no expert but my guess, a wild guess, is there is a spacer in there…….
Thank you for your help……. I am trying to 100% be sure of this call…….. this truck which I think looks great has a lot of pictures on this site. You can find it under “”The Silver Stallion””. This gentleman is saying the wheels that he has are 17x9 with a +1 offset…….. I’m trying to determine if...
I understand that, but the instructions on my lift say do not use anything more than 5 inch backspace so I was trying to reference with the factory wheel is in “”back space”” while I am here at work being unable to measure it till late tonight. Thanks again.
There is a 3 1/8” inch difference from before and after, but it takes about 5 inches to level it. We did a test on the second day that I had it at home and I think it was 4 7/8 lift on the front with a floor jack that made it level. 3 inches will not level it……
Question : if I would like to adjust the collar on the coil about one or so turns, do I need to compress the coil springs with a coil spring compression tool? Or …… just loosen that one bolt on the collar and put a spanner tool in there and adjust. Thanks!
