I just love those wheels! Not able to find any pictures of them mounted on 64 - 66 trucks. If you find any post them here to see how it looks like. Any hands on experience welcome also.

Debating to put 20x8,5 front with 4.5BS and Toyo Proxes STII 255 40 20 front and 20x10 with 5.5BS and Toyo Proxes 315 35 20 rear. Those fit perfect on 67 -85 trucks with 5 lug. Running 64 C10 Fleetside truck with 5 lug out of 73 and 5/7 drop. Will make wider inner fenders in bed. Any idea if this all will clear front and rear outer fenders? Don't want to spend $$ and end up with issue. Truck is apart now due to paint and can not measure it!

Where did you guys buy from, is any vendor that can offer above set on forum also?

Thanks.

you wont find them. they stopped making them and every vendor I contacted doesnt have them. 20" Ridler are almost identical and should be coming out the end of the month. I was waiting for them but decided 22" look better to me... good luck!!!

That is the same size/tire set up on our red stepside. Contact Tommy at TNT Motorsports. He is in the vendor section and did a great job for me. He has MANY other wheels to choose from too. he is ksbrktracer on here...

I've been told that they are making them again this month, but not 100% sure about that....

5on5 I think the back spacing is 4 1/2" I'll verify that when I get home tonight

5 on 5...4 1/2" backspace

Re: Eagle 225 wheels
 
thanks Mike for checking on that. I was needing the 5" BS that they made at one time...

Re: Eagle 225 wheels
 
Guys they are still building this wheel. The 5" BS wheel is the one I am trying to get for Korbin and Karl ..... Talk about patient people. I have one so far, hopefully we will finally have another one in a few weeks. There are 20X10''s available and the are building a run of 20X8.5''s with 4.5 BS right now

Do they still make these? What do they run for 20x10 and 20x8.5's?
Thanks

Yes they do still build them . They say 6 to 8 weeks to get them but it's truthfully closer to 12 maybe even 14 weeks. That has been my experience on the last two sets that I have ordered. 20X10's in standard backspacing's run $315 apiece plus shipping. I will have to get prices on the 20X8.5's. I am a direct dealer for the Eagle Wheels.

I do have a pair of 20 x 8.5's in stock for sale
