Re: Got some new wheels: Boss 338's in 20x10 and 20x8.5

Brandon's Truck.

These wheels are work to make them fit, but it is SO worth it when done correctly!

Here is some motivation for you all.

Re: Got some new wheels: Boss 338's in 20x10 and 20x8.5

Finally got around to taking a pic with my 338

245/40/18 and 275/30/20 Nitto's. I do have 2/4 drop springs to install so that should help, but I think I need a 294/45/20 rears.

Did this. Ground rotors up front. Spacers in rear. Measure 3 times before ordering spacers if you want it tight. 20" wheels, 10" wide in back with 6.23 bs, 8.5" wide in front with 5.24 bs.

4 years after buying them my 18's are on and my 69 has 5-lug power disc brakes. What a difference.

If I had to guess, I'd say 20x10 and 20x8.5 based on what was written in the post you quoted.
