I dont know the offset of these rims but they are 18x8.5. I am doing a muscle car inspired truck, if anyone knows of anything that looks like this that will tuck, please let me know.


thanks,
Mike

judging buy the dish or lip I would have to say no they wont tuck

a rule of thumb a 8.5 in wide wheel is actually 9.5 inches because of the lip
a 7 in wide wheel is 8 inches and so on

to make those tuck you would need a back space of 7 inches I believe if you wanna find out more about wheels that tuck on our dawgs check out the mazda section on SSM
there are a million posts about offset and what wheels will tuck and what back spacing do you need for each width of wheel. check with billet specialties.com they have a set just like that they are a bit pricey but they are custom made to the factory wheel specs of our trucks
sorry for the long post justgive some info
so it doesnt take you 2 years to find the right wheels like it did me. I still havent found the wheels I want yet

AMERICAN RACING TORQUE THRUST 2's are the way to go b/c you can get any offset and if i was doin the theme you are i wouldnt run 8.5s up front, personally i would run anywhere from 6"-7.25, just b/c the skinnys are so bad ass plus there to dam wide, oh yea do a 5 lug conversion!
