Hey guys,
Wel i just picked up a set of konig blix2 20s from my work, one of the reps gave me smokin deal on them so i couldnt pass them up. hers the problem, they are 20x8.5 with a 35 offset, which means that they appear to stick out of the truck by bout 1/4 to 1/2 inch... so im thinking i need 4x4 fenders and bed, problem with that is uphere in canada they are hard to come by in good shape and arent cheap. So i am thinking of flaring my bedsides and fenders and rolling the lip. OR my other solution is where you guys come in....

How much cn i get milled off the wheel where it touches the hub?i figure i got 5/8s space between the hub side of the bolt and where the taper starts, what would you guys recomend??
Thanx id advnce for the help guys!!

forgot to mention the truck is static dropped, not baged or anything, and i would hate to have to go to the west coast style and raise it to fit my wheels...

I , sir, am highly offended. I wasn't aware that was the "westcoast style". Now I have to lift both of my trucks. JK.

Flare the bedsides and fenders. Not safe to mill any off the wheel mounting surface.

LOL.......if you ever sell that truck I want it. If that represents "westcoast style", I love it.

^^^I agree with him.

haha i was refering to the donks and bubles that seemed to originate from the westcoast... so no one thinks it would be a good idea to mill anything from the inside of the wheel??

I think you mean the Durty South. Donks and bubbles originated in places like the ATL. Georgia. But anyways, You should not machine the backs of your wheels. Cast wheels especially, because they tend to be brittle and you could lose a wheel.
