Re: 20" Truck Rally Wheels

The MOQ (minimum order quantity) is ALOT. Thate why others who have tried this have stopped short of completion. There is alot of money involved in making molds to press centers, jigs to weld the wheels in, etc... The biggest hurdle is the minimum order quantity. I am not going to order 1000 wheels in 8" wide and same in 10" wide if there isnt a LARGE response for them. Then you have some people want a 8" wide wheel with 5" backspace and some want 5.25, 5.75, etc... Gets expensive quick. I think what we might have to do is build them in one backspace for the 8s and one for the 10s. Something that will "work" for most people. Probably a 5" or 5.25" bs for the 20x8 and a 5.5" or 6" b.s. for the 20x10. That way you can run a spacer to push them out if needed. You cant tuck them in further if the wheel you have doesnt have enough backspacing. Your guys thoughts? Would like to hear more opinions on finish, etc.

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.
