I have seen trucks running Eagle rims. do they do custom offsetting?

hey go to RimStop.com it is great put your truck on it and it will tell you what rims you can put on

width means nothing at all without telling us offset. No way should anyone think that all 18x9 wheels will tuck, because the large majority wont.

Also, if you measured you rim to be 9 inches wide with a tape measure, its actually an 8 inch wide wheel. The bead lips add a half inch each. A 9 inch wide wheel is actually 10 inches wide, etc.

Not saying you did, but 18X9 with anything except 57mm offset or custom arms would be awfully tough to tuck on a mazda. I saw some 8.5's in the front of a mazda and it looked like a steam roller. Had to use a wider tire too.

mine are 19x8 with a 45mm offset, and tuck like a mofo, but my trackwidth is down to 55.5"
