Front wheels

Hey guys, I had some on order, but canceled those, found some better ones.

I have the Alumnastar 2.0's on the rear, unfortunately, there is no 5x5 bolt pattern for the front, just for the small trucks/cars.
So, the closest 5x5 wheel I can get from Weld is the RT-S, S71 series, with a polished center. I like it, it matches close enough, so I'm going with this one.

My trucks current stance is just fine, so I wanna stay with the overall height the stock rim and kuhmo tire provides.
The overall height of the wheel/tire combo: 24.75"
I'd like to keep under a 25" overall height combo.

Here's the link to the wheel I'm getting:

I'm actually thinking of getting the center of the Alumnastars coated black as well.

SO, what backspacing/offset do I need to get?
What rim width?

I don't want an extremely skinny wheel up front, but I do want something a lot narrower than the stock rim.
I think the stock rim is a 7 or 8", not sure, so maybe a 4 to 5 inch wheel??

If you have seen something that works well, please post, I'd rather go with a proven wheel/tire setup instead of guessing.
If you have pics, please post.

thanks in advance,
allen

Those are really going to complete the look of the truck.

Looks good man should look awesome on the ride.

Those are soo clean. Id go five inches wide on the rims and get as close to stock offset as you can... it's goin to really set that truck off!!!

most guys running bogarts are 4.5 width up front, mine are anyway, as for the backspacing i can find out for ya?


those wheels do look nice!!

4.5" with some 5ish inch tires, those wheels are going to look killer with the rear set up you already have, can't wait.

I need to do some figuring though, looks like the size calcs to only about 25" tall (even though their site says 26") and I think that would put my valance on the ground.

Ya, be careful on the height, the dimensions on the sidewall never calculate to be actual height.

most of the time tires are about .5" shorter, around that size.
