Default 18x9.5 wheels w/ 5" BS ???
My question is : Will a set of 18x9.5 wheels w/ a 5" BS tuck on a NBS truck? Meaning - Will they stick out or look flush? Will 9.5" wide be too wide for the front?

I have an 8" wide wheel with 5" backspacing and it sits flush. With a 9.5" wheel, it would stick out past the fender.

I agree.

A 6" backspace would be better suited.

Thanks!! That's kinda what I figured. I found a set of new Centerlines that are 9.5's for a good price. But, I don't want them cause they'll be sticking out the fenders.
