I've been looking at some 19.5" wheels to see what my options are. What I don't understand is why anyone would wait 6 months for Rickson to deliver Vision when you can have them from anywhere else in about 2 days time. Is the pricing different or something? It's a serious question, why should I even consider Rickson at this point?
It's not the Vision wheels you wait for. It's the Rickson custom made steel wheels you wait for. If you want the OEM backspacing, you get Rickson wheels. If you want aluminum, zero offset, Chinese wheels, you get Vision 81's and you can get them quickly. Those are your choices for SRW trucks.
Don't know how important it is, but because of the Dodge front end history, I thought that keeping the OEM backspacing intact might be better for long term durability??
I would be lying to you if I was not concerned with OEM backspacing especially regarding the 3 rd generation Dodge front end. Lord knows how much $$$$ I have spent on front end already just upgrading from stock 265 Michelins to Nitto terra and Durra 285s let alone the 19.5s. The ricksons are heavier than the visions I believe so that can be a concern too. Roll the dice!!!
