That's what I bought and they said they would fit, so we will see. The only bad part is they are on a 4 week lead time. This week will be week 4 for me...so hopefully they come in this week or next as I am going CRAZY!!

they will be fine, but don't expect them to tuck very easily at all on a bagged truck.

They are a good offset to run. I've had my 20x8.5" Centerlines for almost a year now with the same offset without issue. Mine are the RF Zoom wheels with a 275/45/20 Yoko tire.

The wheels you are talking about are the "Ultra" series, which are new. Same wheel, alot lighter! The reg. Stingrays had a 5.0" backspacing, so these should be a little more under the truck than the older ones. I don't see how you can go wrong for $750 shipped. I've heard the wheels weigh 19lbs each, which is about 8lbs less per wheel than the older "non-Ultra" version.

I'd buy some, if I didn't owe the government $2300+ for taxes.

I got mine last week

I waited a little over 3 weeks for mine. They weigh under 20lbs each and right at 56lbs with yoko 275/45/20 tires.

Damn, I'm going to give centerline a call and price some of their wheels. I may be picking up a set of 17x8's for mine.

Trying to decide between the Rapid, Champ XL, or Stingray III's.
