so im looking around for rims and i know that the volk te37 replicas have a thread. i found a set on craigslist here: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv/pts/1556012308.html

they are 18 x 9, 5 x 114.5with an offset of 15

my question is will this fit and work with the truck and can i use the same tires i have on them now which are the potenzas that come stock. My truck is in hawaii so i am not sure about the dimensions of the stock tires so all your guys help would be great. THANKS!

don't see why not.....don't think there's enough travel in the suspension to hit the fenders......talk to TXR-HI he's run some low offsets :top:

the 114.5 is the thread pattern and i dont think you wanna put a 15 mm offset on your truck but it will fit i think

alright thanks the tires will just be stretched right?

8.5 i believe

what is the advantage or disadvantage to having a 15mm offset?

The +15 will fit just fine. It will be nice and flush. Gives you a wider stance. I know of a member on here who has +12 offset on the rears. Looks absolutely perfectly sick. You won't be dissappointed. I know of another with +15, or +17 but can't remember which. tcTaco.
