That truck looks real nice with the bigger wheels.

Can anyone say what is the difference in offset between various 6-hole
'deuce' wheels?

This is very interesting, as I've been told the dualled up 1100x20's
would rub and also thay they would not rub. (mine did not, I have 1"
with a load) I think we have a variety of wheels, and it depoends which
you have.

Where do we look on the wheels to determine what part# they are, and
where is the date stamp? How to correlate wheels to trucks?
