Helo Maxx fitment question

I stopped by Desert Rat today and they recommended not replacing my stock wheels. Did any of you guys with Helo Maxx 6's have fitment problems? I was looking at the helo's w/265/75R16 Terra Grapplers.

Thanks.

That size wont fit our trucks. Youll have to get them in the 17's. The 16's wont fit.

Yep. You gotta go with 17x9, they fit just fine - 16x9's dont' have enough clearance for our brake calipers.

Do you think I will run into the same problem with the Dick Cepek DC-1? Will 16' fit, or do I need 17's?

^^ The truck you are talking about is under the wheel and tire fitment guide, I dont think the guy is an active member, but usually when you get a pm you also get an email. But Im not sure about the 16" Dicks either, They make them in black and they look pretty sweet.

I did a search for all of his posts, and I found the one for the new wheels. He's running 16's.

The black ones are the wheels I want. Should look awesome with my black taco. They are not in the budget until the fall. Need to do the lift now. I am looking for cheap 16 inch rims for the short term. I need tires now, so I figured I would do the lift (Toytec) with the 285's and add the wheels later. I'll have to use spacers in the front for about 6 months. I may have to hit a junk yard for the wheels. SinCityTaco has stock 16's, but they are mint and out of my price range. I want to spend 100-150 tops. What a pain.
