...Is there anything I should be concerned with putting 10" wide wheels with a 4.5" backspacing on my truck. Guess that should of been my question to begin with. Thanks
What tire will you run?
look here on page 48
http://www.accuridewheels.com/completeversion.pdfIt list 20" truck tires.....
the smallest 20" , a 7.50-20 tire is still about 36" tall (32-34" works well on a 1 ton) And see the recommended rim widths? they want a 5.5, 6, or 6.5" wide wheel.
Now look what size tire fits on a 10" wide wheel, a huge 13.00 or 14.00-20, like a flotation tire on the front of a concrete truck!
Now there may be some 20" light truck tires out these days, I'm not sure if anything will suit.
My opinion is this wide 20" wheel idea is not a good one. Might be only way you can find out and satisfy your curiosity is to try it.
Back to the original goal, disc brakes right.
Just because I test fit 19.5" wheels with the original axle disc swap setup I proposed (but won't be using) doesn't mean a different wheel won't fit, or a different slightly smaller rotor won't work and allow smaller wheels.
You're venturing into the part of our hobby where you've got to gather some parts and see what works for you, your truck, and your abilities. Get out there and try some stuff.
