10.5" rear! ????

Hey

I finally got my wheels, the rear was 10.5"!(ordered 9.5 but they said the always do the widest that fit) ??? Tried to mount the wheel with 285/25/20 on, but it got stuck on the inside when dropping the suspension. The company says is should work but it sure dont. Anyone heard of 10.5 working??

You shouldn't have installed it. Return it.

Don't know the offset, have to ask them, but is it even possible to have 10.5 with perfect offset? The wheel just get stuck when lowering the suspension so i cant really think of a way to make it work.

It's all about offset and backspacing



I was able to clear 20x10" wheel

That car in the pic does look like it's at stock height

With the proper fitment specs 20x10.5 is certainly doable. Another important factor is the manufacturer of the tires, every tire does not run the same, some are bulkier than others (even if they are same size)
