I like those Enkei wheels too. Hmmm...I'll have to check them out closer. Between the two, I like the Enkei RT6. Thanks for posting those JD. :cheers:

I hope one of the options is to get them with a smooth edge on that lip.

I just got off the phone with Centerline and they can make a set with a smooth edge on the lip. They don't have any pictures of the Bigfoot in a 6 lug yet because they haven't made any yet. They are going to make a wheel for picture purposes but he didn't know when that would be done. I guess I would be the first to have a set made. :uhoh: Instead of the 8 spoke in the 8 lug, he was pretty sure it would be 6 spoke for the 6 lug. They will be right at 32lbs for 20x8.5.

Just to beat a dead horse to death, does anyone see any issues with running this wheel with +12 offset with only a leveling kit?

32bls... mine were right around 23lbs. for my centerlines. And I will never do business again with those guys.

Yeah most if their other wheels are listed as weighing less so these are definitely heavier. Everything else I'm looking at is around 40lbs so I'm happy with 32.

I remember the problems you had. I'll roll the dice if I decide on these.

+12mm offset is going to stick out a bit and increase the likelihood of rubbing the inner fender when turning. Mine are +36mm and they fit almost perfectly flush with the fender lip.

Are your wheels 8.5" wide?

I can also get them in a +30mm or 32mm offset (can't remember which). The only reason I was leaning towards +12mm was for a little deeper lip.

Might be deeper but it won't look right on the truck sticking out (in my opinion)

12 might be a bit much. My old Sierra was 18 and perfect with 305's.

Mine are 9 inches wide and +36. That translates into 18mm LESS outside the hub than the +12 8.5 inchers he posted. 18mm will certainly stick out past the fender... but I'm incredibly anal about wheels being flush or just inside.
