The only way to get a deeper dish is to narrow the rearend. Any more than 2.5" you will need offset lca's. You cant run a 16" wide without a minitube and a custom rear that was narrowed about 6" per side. Then you would have a custom suspension because of the lca mounts.

Here is what I have.
I don’t have them on the car yet but they are 17x11 with a 4.5bs the rear is narrowed 3 inches. I was told that I would have to cut out the bump stops to get them to fit. From what I've gathered on here if u narrow the rear any more then 3 and u lose your e break. I have offset LCA but that’s is only because I plan to mini tube it and run a 18x12 with a 345 MT in the future.

I almost had to get my uncle involved, he's a corp litigation attorney, one of the top 10 in the U.S.; nice to have a $2000+ an hour attorney on retainer for FREE DM

The Center Line Convo Pros only come 15x10 ( at Jegs ) and you can get them for UNDER $200.
Now your getting a little more in the GREEN with the American Racing & Billet Specialties.
The American Racing TrakStar 480R in a 15x15 (not doubled bead locked) are Mid to High $500. And the Billet Specialties Street Lite 15x15 are Mid $300.
But in the over all big picture, these prices are DIRT CHEAP compared to other wheels. Oh and BTW, the American Racing 480r is a 3 piece wheel & Billet Specialties Street Lite is a 2 piece. How can ya bitch about that

Bro, the wheels I posted are cheap as ****. Take the Center Line Fuel wheel I posted, the 15x15 wheel is $272 @ Jegs. Hell, at that price I would replace them as soon as they get dirty
