I would have gone with those aluminum MBs but I am not feeling the center cap design.

Sadly the 16x8 Cragars only come in a 5" backspacing. Then again I don't want to push the tires out much. What if I went with a narrower tire, 265/75. Turning the keys I can do, but I don't want to trim anything.

I was actually looking at those Yokos yesterday, and from what I've read they're a great tire

Now that I think about it, 16x8's with 0mm offset would be centerline of the wheel, or 4". I'd think the 5" would actually be like a -25mm offset, exactly opposite of what I ordered. IF that's the case, the 285's would fit w/o a problem, but might rub on the frame and/or a-arms at full lock.

While I'm not a wheel tech, I think that's the way it works. Probably best to talk to a tech to make sure first.
