Default Wheel Options

I was looking at getting different wheel set. I saw some pro comp steel wheels somewhere, now can't find it. Pro Comp site says only offer in 8" width. I'm looking for 16x10 5x6.5.

Anyone using this wheel? I'm currently using 30mm spacers with stock wheels and think this would be about same offset.

10" wide wheels are too wide for anything less than a 12.5" wide tire.

I hope you're driving on sand, otherwise there's no point to tires and wheels that wide.

Don't be like this guy:

Well when you get into 34"+ tires finding them less than 12.5 becomes difficult. I'd really like a 35" tire that's about 10". Interco makes one but they're about $440 a pop. Ouch!

Come on guys. I do drive in sand. I live on the coast. I have 3057016 tires.

So now that we're past all that. Has anyone run 16x10 wheels?

Thanks! But not DOT approved and for off road use only........maybe that's just a CYA statement or not. Looking more like going to have to stick to the 8" width wheel which if I can find the offset that will closely match what I have now will work.

Unless inspection checks for DOT on the wheels, no one cares.
