what about the height, ricky? With our trucks being bodydropped, the have to be raised 2". I can use factory witdth fenders on mine but they have to be raise 2" to fit the 22 underneath it.

That's my next project after I get my truck in the body shop I'm going to work on is raising them. I'm going to take the 2" wider ones and raise them about 2". Not sure if I'm going to make a mold of those or not.

Thanks for the comments about the dually Greg. Hopefully it will go to the body shop soon, I hope to have it painted before the end of the year. As far as the colors, my good friend is painting my truck and he has something up his sleeves!!

How much do you guys usually sell a set of 22" Semi wheels for, no tires. I think I met you guys at Greenville this year in the Ramada parking lot.

thanks ricky. Let me know if you make a mold for the taller ones. There is a different offset semi wheel that you can use on the rear and use the factory width fenders and factory rearend.

I know about the different offset wheels. I've been talking to Frank at Red's in Miami. I think what he actually does is mill out the back of the wheels for the adapters. I went a head and widened the fenders because my 16" tires would rub on the insides of the rear fenders when I would drag. With the being widened I'll be able to drive as low as I want and not have to worry about them rubbing.Also someone told me once that certain year dually rear ends were a little longer then others. Not sure if that's true or not.

Well they make a dually rearend used for flatbed bodies, utility bodies, etc. Then there is your standard rearend. I dont think Frank does anything to the wheels as far as the mounting surface. the wheel mounting surface is inset so when the adapter thickness is added, it put the gap between the inside wheel and outsiude wheel right where it needs to be.
