Billet wheels??? Bending problems?
I thought I was decided on getting 19's staggered and running the fat setup. I have a line on some Budnik 20" staggered "Gasser" Fat lip profile wheels I can pickup for an awesome price. I wanted to see if anybody has billet wheels and has issues with bending them - or bending a 20 period.
Also I know this has been beaten with a stick many times over, but I want to double check if I get these wheels and run 245/35 front and 275/35 rear I will not rub much on the Ltuned S/S right? I know at full lock I will rub, but I am mainly concerned with daily driveablility....
I am checking on the offsets and will post the number once I get them.,

I had some 20" boyd coddington wheels on my durango a few years back. I bent them a few times but only minor bends that I didnt bother getting fixed. I had 245 40 tires in the front and that is where my bends occurred. I now have 35 series tires and I run about 38 psi with no problems.

I hear you Darius!!! Could it be because of the weight of the Truck vs the car. The car being lighter of course. Or alteast being closer to a 50/50 weight ratio, versus the truck 90/10
PS. Can somebody head over to the photoshop forum and chop the wheels for me? I have having some difficulties...
