Yes, putting the wheels farther out puts a little more stress on the wheel bearings. However, every aftermarket wheel (with less backspacing) and larger tires does so. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Anytime we modify the suspension, tires, etc. in this way, we are putting more stress on the factory parts. Its a tradeoff.

OK! That's fine, I understand, and I'm sure it sucks. But I still don't know what that has to do with growing ***** and this thread topic. LOL closed

Tim, in my view, I do not like those wheels at all. They look like a wheel that goes with a spare tire. I think you'd be much better off just getting your stock wheels powder coated. At least you will save more money if your going after that look.
