Thank you Ricky. Arnott has shipped the items. Patiently waiting.

Thrillcat-I have already painted the red wheels. Putting up photos shortly.
Will install on the truck tomorrow and update.

The black wheels are completely wrong in terms of offset at the front. That is the reason I do not want to keep them.

Thank you. Unfortunately the front offset is completely wrong. And you are absolutely correct 295s on the wheels are too narrow.

I will be installing 275 front and 315 rear tomorrow on 20" SAFs correct OEM required measurements. Tire pressure keeping 32 front and 35 rear.

SAF wheels before and after. I will install them on the truck tomorrow and post pictures and compare with the black wheels on the truck now.
