Getting the Wheeling Fever
I want to know if anyone knows the specs (backspacing and offset) on the 16x7.5 snowflakes and the alloys that came on my 2000 LSE (16x7).

I want to put the snowflakes on my truck and I think from what I've seen here before they would stick out farther.

I admit, I suck at searching and didn't find anything in my searches. So, feel free to call me an idiot and post a link to the proper search for what I'm looking for.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, they will stick out a bit but man does it look good. I have 285/75/16's on mine and it looks sweet in my opinion.

Your alloys should have 1.5" of offset and the snowflakes have 0" offset. So the snowflakes would stick out 1.75" more then your alloys.

Thanks for the feedback.

BigPoppa,

I think I saw pics of yours and that's what got me thinking of buying a set. I've also never forgotten how cool my old '94 looked with snowflakes.

Thanks again.

Boy I'd be interested in finding some 16x7.5 snowflakes. How hard are these to come by?

they are all over the place if you are really interested. plan on most (not all people) selling for over 100 a piece.

granted there are guys who will chime in and say how they found the great cheap set, few and far between though. Seems like a set of rockcrawlers would suffice and would be new, and you can get the setup you want. My 2 cents

Will these fit over the larger rotors/brakes on the 2002+ Isuzus?

If you have 16s on it now then the 16 snowflakes should clear fine, but I've heard that the 15s don't clear on 2nd gens.

I picked my set of five snowflakes (with 265/75/16's on them) for $150 granted the tires were probably only good for a few thousand miles, but the five snowflakes were well worth the $150.

- or maybe to have one of them possibly serve as a mismatched spare for a set of Cooper STTs, and a subsequent set of MT/Rs <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

Six Isuzus, so far... still have three of them.
