Ok, So I am in the market for some new wheels. I have narrowed it down to the XD Diesels or the Helo Maxx 6. I have a 6" Fabtech lift on my 2wd. It says I need a wheel with 4.5" of backspacing. So that's what I have now. 18x9 (-12mm offset) 4.5" BS. They fit perfect with 325/65r18 tires. I have the same size tires to mount on the new wheels.

My question is will a 0mm offset with 5" backspacing fit? or would I need 1/2" spacers to keep the tires from rubbing the control arm?
Both of these wheels are 18x9, but the Diesels are a 0mm offset, and the Maxx 6's are a -12mm offset, which I already know will fit fine.

Sorry for being so long winded. but thanks for any help
*** Oh Ya.... anyone interested in a set of chrome moto metal 954's?
Diesels 18x9 0mm offset 5" backspacing


Maxx 6 18x9 -12mm offset 4.5" backspacing

 

You would need 1/2 spacers to make the 5"BS wheels fit as they recess 1/2" more than the 4.5's.
Now, knowing that prior to buying the wheels....I would NOT buy the wheels. i would find wheels that will fit without the hassle and worrying about spacers not to mention that it will be an added expense.

 

Ya, those are my thoughts too. I like the looks of the Diesels better, but the two of them are close enough in appearance, that i am leaning towards getting the Helo's because I am positive they will fit. (they are cheaper too!)

 

Helos!!!

 

how much you tryin to sell the rims for

 

Haven't really thought about it yet. I need to get a new set put on first.
Shoot me an offer. It can't hurt, right

I was planning on trying to sell them locally as a package with the 35" tires. The tires are worn, but still have a little life left in them. The rims are in really good shape. I also have no idea what shipping would be? But I would be willing to separate them for the right offer also.

 

All I am looking to raise my 07 and see that others have found Rancho and Fabtech lifts but I have not been able to find ether one?
Also out of the 3" and 6" in lifts does any one have a pro or con on eather?
