    OFFSET is

    OVERALL width of wheel / 2 - BACKSPACING

    so 8.5 is the wheel width but OVERALL wheel width is prob 9.5"

    9.5/2 = 4.75

    4.75-5.75= -1

    -1'' is +25mm offset.

    check theyre website but that should be pretty damn close to right.

    i cant see fuel making any of there wheels with a + offset that just wouldnt make sense for an offroad wheel company to do that.. im thinking that guy on ebay has the backspacing all wrong or something, there is no way that wheel has almost 6'' of backspacing... according to another website the fuel hostages in that size ur looking at have a -12 offset which is normal for that width of a wheel.

    this guy just put these on his truck a few days ago i guess, they are 17'' fuel hostages.. my guess is thats exactly what theyll look like but with 7 holes of course. i think those look nasty id love to have them.

    I've been searching online and I read that some of the 04+ trucks have the 7 lug pattern and it's the same as mine, however wheels for 97-03 won't fit the newer ones because of the caliper, but the newer style will fit the older 97-03 models... Is this true?
