I ordered the wheels that I am offering to sell. Buy selling these I hope to save the cost of return shippment and if someone is interested in them they will save the cost of shipping.
The wheels do not fit because of the shape of the center of the wheel. The back space does not have an effect on this.
I have stock steel wheels on my truck now that clear the calipers just fine but they are only 6.5 inches wide and I would like to run 12.5 wide tires.
Wheel manufactures use different center designs so I was hoping someone on this board may have had some experience with this issue and may have found a wheel with a center shape that will clear the caliper.
I tried using the search feature but I did not find any information on the subject other than people use spacers to offset the wheel to clear the calipers.

I really really don't want to run spacers.

If I can't find any production wheels that will fit then I'll have to run 33x9.50s again or go the custom route of having the centers of my stock wheels put into an 8" wide outer. I'm thinking that will be pricey though.
