I am looking for a set of wheels that will tuck also. What styles of Alba wheels can they make in the needed backspacing and our lug pattern? Did you order the wheels blank and have them drilled? I would love any help that you can offer!! Thanks!!

Got to Albawheels.com and go to vwoc or view wheels on car and look at the wheels they carry for dakota. Or you can talk to Budnik, Billetspecialties,Boze, or Boyd Coddington and get some made to your specifications. Also check out Superbuytires.com they have a lot of wheels for are truck.NO I didn't have toget them redrilled.

Thanks for the info lowdak....I am gonna get the Lekos for my truck. I currently have Centerlines with 5.5" of backspacing on an 8" wheel and no luck with tucking there. I was gonna get another billet wheel, but I'm getting tired of polishing them!!

I have one last question...what offset did you get on those wheels. I e-mailed them and they told me that they could make it in a +21mm offset....did you get the +42 or +45 offset?

Do you have a phone number for the place that will do that? I would rather have my Centerlines made to tuck than to get new wheels.
