i personally think 9" wide would be fine...ofcourse 10 would be better for tire stability but i will take 9" in those wheels...i just want them now...im close to picking up some 7.5s

Yeah hold off on trying to order, there is no part number yet, and they are going to let us know if they can address that one spot where they rub. They were also going to kick around whether they can make them a little wider. He said Friday to give me until Monday to connect with him. We might need John to talk to Engineering too.

The wheel measures 10" from outer lip to outer lip and 9" from inside the lip to inside the lip.

Yes the barrel of the 15x9 is less in diameter than a 15x8.5 or 15x7.5 when measured at the same location up off the rear of the center hub

I'm wondering the same thing. 6.5" wouldn't be bad at all.

I talked to Centerline, and engineering had not gotten back to marketing yet. He sais this week.
AFAIK, this prototype wheel is not in the system. I asked them if they had a part number yet and he said no.
