OEM Wheel questions

[mc130fox]

Hi all!

I am looking for the OEM offset and backspace dimensions for the 2008 OEM 17" 8x6. 5 wheels (PN 52013663AC) as found on my truck. Are these wheels hub centric?

I am trying to find forged aluminum wheels in black that are hub centric. Do THESE fit the bill?

Thanks!

Those will stick out of the fender 1. 75" more than your stock wheels.

So less backspacing means what you described, correct? I must have had that backwards in my head!

Correct. Backspace is the measurement from the back side of the wheel and is the distance from the wheels mounting flange at the lug nut area out to the edge of the wheel. (edge of wheel on inside)



example...



10" wide wheel with 5" back space means- 5" of the wheels width sets in from the hub and the other 5" sets out.



8" wide oem wheel with 6. 25" back space means- 6. 25" of the wheels width sets in while the remaining 1. 75" sets out from where the wheel touches the hub.

I had a set of those on my 97 3/4 ton Dodge with a 360. I lost the front passenger tire and the rim grinded/shattered when it hit the asphalt at about 65-70 mph. Ever since then I have stayed clear of cast aluminum wheels. I even swapped out the cast stock wheels on 03 diesel with the newer forged wheels.
