Dick Cepek Wheels

[SSalzer]

Anyone running the Dick Cepek black DC1's? If so, can you post a picture. I was thinking of getting the 18x9's. Was wondering how much they'd stick out past the fender w/Toyo 325/60 18's.

Those will stick out a bunch . . . you need at least 6" backspace and these have only 4. 5" BS. They will stick out 2. 5" more than stock. It works out like this:

Each inch of backspace less than 6" will add to the outside (1. 5" for the DC1 wheels)
Each inch of rim width beyond stock (8") will add to the outside (1. 0" for the DC1)

1. 5+1. 0 = 2. 0

That really helps. I was never really sure exactly how that all worked out. Thanks for clearing it up for me.

This is a great link for plugging in wheels and tires to find out how far they will stick out from stock. Plug the stock information on the left and what you want on the right. I saw it in a post awhile back.
