Ok Im looking to get some new rims for my 04 F250 and the info is getting me all turn around. I have been told that 05-up rims will not fit on my truck without spacers. I am possibly looking at some rims forsale here local and they are aftermarket rims off an 05. Just need a little guidance on what I need to look for as far as backspacing and offset numbers.

might want to go to this forum and post your same question. Expand your views to a topic specific thread. Cause, I know I don't have a clue!

With an '04 you want 4.5 inches of backspace. And BTW, offset and backspace are directly related. 4.5" backspace on a 10" wide wheel is -25mm (or 24, can't remember) offset, and on a 9" wide wheel it is -12mm offset.
