imo = in my opinion

word so go here http://www.workwheelsusa.com/product...ry=27&wheel=79 and look at the pdf size chart. For aggressive sizing you'll want 18x9 or 18x10 with a nice offset to push the wheels out towards the fenders. The lower the offset (the +XX numbers) the farther it will be pushed out.

check out the aggressive wheel thread in the suspension/wheels forum and look at all the pics and sizings and you'll get an idea of how it works

yeah i paid alot more than that, and to top it off this if for (4) 19x9.5 rims i think the offset is 42 gotta check, so it requires no fender rolling or trimming to fit..i also have a set of project kics 15mm spacers front and rear for you hella flush guys..lol (i could cut a good deal on those at the same time too)

Chase: if you want some info on wheels, let me know - i just picked up a magazine last night that gives a full description of the basics of wheel knowledge - it explains camber, caster, toe in, toe out, centripicle(sp) force, centerfugical force, oversteer, understeer, kingpin, rolling, shaving, pulling, trimming and other stuff. Lemme know I'll bring it to the Kogi truck meet up tomorrow

Any chance you could scan that up and send me a copy? I would like to learn the knowledge of wheels.

Rory: i gotta see if my scanner at my house still works but yeah man, i'll definitely give it a try. It was magazine on the shelves this month - it was called "THE ULTIMATE WHEEL GUIDE 2010"

A good number of the wheels in there are garbage IMO. A lot of very good companies were left out (i.e. Advan, wedsports, gramlights, etc.) but there's a good deal of wheel information twowards the back of the mag. Def worth a look. It also gives all the hub sizing, lug patterns, thread pitches and oem sizes of most of the cars on the road. In retrospect...i think that was the actual reason why i bought the mag...lol
