    Has nothing to do with the best....your rims not being properly back spaced makes your tires and wheels stick out further than GM designed your truck for.....this puts extra stress and strain on your hubs, bearings, and steering components. In other words.....they will not last as long as intended.

    Then....there is the Safety factor to consider.....If your aftermarket rims cause a ball joint or a tie rod end to break....it could cause a wreck. Aftermarket rims are fine if they are backspaced the same as stock rims so your tires and wheels do not stick out further than they are supposed to be.

    Something else to consider. No matter what parts you use today, you will have it to do over in 2-3 years if you don't correct the cause.
