AlbinoMonkeyRat is on a distinguished road
do you know what the offset of the wheels are? Whichever spacer gets you to the 35-42 range will help you out. :thumbsup:

Who said you need wheel spacers? You have the correct bolt pattern and the size/offset are fine, so they should bolt right up without a hitch. You may, however, want to add hub-centric rings to be sure the weight of the vehicle is being supported by the hubs and not the wheel lugs.

/\ /\ Yup. I believe a couple others on here (including Naich?) have the same wheels, and I don't believe any of them needed spacers. I would definately inquire about hubcentric rings though, as mfuller said.

As long as you get the proper rings, they will NEVER be hard to install. You need to get the right ring based on your stock centerbore and the centerbore of the new wheel. As long as you get them based on that info, they should slide right on for a nice tight fit.
