yeah, but do you know if they can get them with a custom 2" backspacing? I e-mailed them to see, but I don't think they can. Can they?

Yes more than likely they can help you out. I ordered some 15x10 8lug wagon wheels from them with 2.5 backspacing. When I talked to them they told me that they could do it, but that they would not be painted. I said that's cool, I planned on painting them anyway. Took a couple weeks if my memory is correct. Give them a ring!

Rocky Road Outfitters carries US Wheel and can get them custom backspaced... I ordered my 15x10 chrome 8 lug for my 95 Bronco there. They were under $90/wheel.

We can do 15x8 2" backspacing unpainted in a Daytona style for $50 apiece, plus UPS (Colorado to California is going to be around $40-50 of UPS for the set, I think), but they'll be bare steel, no paint.

In a Daytona, the 15x10 would be $60 apiece plus UPS; 15x12's would go to a Tracker style instead of the Daytona, which bumps it to around $80 apiece, still plus UPS. From memory, they'll only do the Daytona center up to 15x10, not bigger.

Scott, can you do 16 x8 or 16 x10 with a 5x4.5 pattern with 4" backspacing? I'd need they by Feb 8th too. I'll call tomorrow, just seeing if I can catch you here.

Had an order placed with 4wpw 2 weeks ago I get an email today saying they cant be made after their sales rep said they'd ship on the 31! :mad:

Umm... not sure on that one, but I know we wouldn't make the 8th deadline... :( Since they're US Wheels, they get made in Cali, then shipped to us (US won't dropship), then shipped back out again, so we're kinda hosed just on shipping time.

Thanks for the fast reply. I'm having a hard time finding the wheel pattern. I find 16 x 8 and 10's listed all over. Just not with 5 x 4.5

Why the 16? If you're running 5x4.5 you don't have brakes big enough to need 16's, so why not just run 15's? Custom wheels are still two weeks out for us, but 15's are a lot easier to get, usually less spendy, and you can get more varieties of tires for 'em too.

I bought 5 new 35 x 16 claws for $175. Too good of deal to pass up. :D
