I do not have a build thread. Unfortunetely I didn't make one when i started my rig and now its too far along to make one. I wouldn't know where to start.

Speaking of painted rims, mine is painted with black bedliner! Does anyone know the name of this model?

Hmm... if i didn't need backspacing for tires I'd probably still be looking for them. They are a good looking wheel and look good painted apparently.

I was looking for Ravines, then for Turbines, then I got 33s and I need backspacing (and a wider wheel), so I'm looking for some Soft 8s.

I'm gonna run 33x12.5s on turbines with 1.5" spacers. I don't expect to rub - that's 3.75" effective backspacing.

Yeah, yeah. Rubbing or not, I don't wanna put 12.50s on a 7" wheel. It'll be even worse when I eventually get up to 35s/37s that are wider.

Try asking that here:

Click the blue "New Thread" button in the top-left corner. Should get you a better result. I don't have an answer for your problem, personally.

Haha I like to call them the Sexy 10 spokes!

I have been on the fence about painting mine satin black for the longest time!

We have the same Spacers, nice
