Ok got a 96 dakota bagged, wanting to get 20", problem what offset should i run to get the rear wheels to tuck?? I have thought about switching to the 89 dakota front rotors and re drilling the rear axles for 5 lug as there are more wheel styles any help on a comapany that makes wheels that will tuck or have any for sale?Thanks

Your only options are billets. I heard they are making some high offset 6 lug wheels because of the new chevys but i dont know anything more than that. if your not body droppin it you should be fine with a decent offset wheel, the back you will have to narrow or get a shorten axle though no matter what

Narrow the axle. My friend did that on his Dodge to tuck some 20s.
