Thanks for posting!

What color is your truck? And can you share your wheel specs (diameter, backspace) and tire size? And is your rear end the narrow or wide 12 bolt?

Rear is narrow. But I'm sure that doesn't help with out the specs.

Very helpful info, thank you.

How much is your truck lowered?

There is one other user I know of that painted his truck grabber blue, really cool color from Ford. Mine is voodoo blue (Toyota color), just a little darker.

I don't think you can order these with a specific offset. They come as they come so to speak. You have to go to the two piece version to get custom offsets.

You can, but they have to be ordered and it. Takes a while

True, there is only one option for each width and bolt pattern.

I am chasing a shake in my truck and can't figure out what it is yet. The wheels I have now are cheap hand-me-down steelies from Jegs. I took them to Discount Tire and had them re-balance and they made it sound like steel wheels are sometimes hard to balance. It felt good after leaving the shop, but the shake is back to normal and pretty annoying right around 55mph. Had the truck aligned at a reputable shop awhile back, so that shouldn't be the issue. So I conducted an elaborate experiment yesterday and did some trading of wheels and tires with our other trucks and test drove and it felt much better, but it's hard to confirm without driving the roads I usually take. My dad never complained of any shaking when they were on his truck. Hard to believe the driveshaft is out of balance. Pinion angles seem to be in the acceptable range.

Regardless, I've been wanting to convert to 5 lug and get different wheels and tires so I'm considering the U121's.
