Are there any sites that sell wheels that fit squarebodies but will list wheels outside of the factory perameters?
Some of them do, but not very well.

Such as, why would a website say that a 18 X 9 1/2 wheel with 5x5 bolt pattern, 5.5” Bs, and 3.3”CBD not fit a 1977 Chevy C10?

Is it just because it’s outside the factory spec?

Most likely, it’s probably a liability issue…. I can’t think of what stores websites do factor in stuff outside of the factory size. But discount tire are more helpful when you go into the store. Even some Les Schwab stores will work with you if you go in personally.

I’ve got a 2/4 drop.
So these are the sizes I’m thinking about-

285/60/18 rear with 18x9.5
245/60/18 front with 18x8

Any thoughts?
