trevor has been on vacation probably why you havent got a tracking number yet, I own the building that TWAT resides in. wheels and tires in the front body shop in the back, and used cars all around!

It can't be that hard. I'll measure it out and figure it out in a month or so. My dad just got a lathe big enough to turn a 28" wheel. I was just going to measure a 22" rim and make the alcoa the same.

Ok so a guy this weekend showed me the difference between a 16.5 and a 16. He said the 22.5 and the 22 is the same way. that it is the outer lip inside being at an angle and that i would need to machine off that angle is all. Not trying to steal anyones job just I am in AZ and trying to get these set up. My truck looks like a$$ sitting on 16's. I have been looking at the 19.5 american eagle wheels but cant find pics of them on a truck.

if youre wrong there's a chance the tire will slip of the rim at the worst possible moment
