I like thoese wheels you got let me know if you might part with them. ware is cass from parkersburg ? I'll be in p-burg at the end of the month as far as your problem I would live with it before I spent $ on spacers. find a wheel you like and save your pennies national tire and wheel in wheeling has good prices on pacage deals if I was you I would run them untill they were shot and get a package deal. just my opinion. o and nice truck !

It depends on how hard it's rubbing.



A wheel with less backspacing and the same width would probably fix it completely. Going to a wider wheel is an option and it will most likely have the same backspacing as the first wheel. So, it's really gonna get pushed outwards.



Sometimes fender clearance becomes an issue with wider wheels as well. I seem to remember that someone had a link to a manufacture that was producing wider wheels with greater backspacing. That would be the besty of both worlds.



Also, id the tires start getting into the fenders. Trimming or hammering them a little may be necessary. All trucks are a little different though. Also, extended arms could help with front to rear wheel placement.



Want a really cheap easy fix? Don't turn the wheel as far. I know, it lacks the genious of adding another $1200 in wheels. But it will work.
