maybe just a mistake? "misinformation" is such a strong word...

misinformation is like "North Korea doesn't have nukes. signed Kim Jong-Un"

eztarget - i am almost tempted to get them. they are nice
Agree. In fact a new set from an ebaY® deal is winging it's way to me even as I type.

Plan-on wrapping 'em with TOYO Open Country A/T ii 285/70s and use 'em as winter wheels.

IMO reflects the magnitude of the difference between 4½" versus 6.16". A mistake would have been (say) 6".

Besides ... Just because it's on the internet, doesn't necessarily mean it's true.

Whoopsi... I thought they were 4.5" and that's what I was told but I'm glad you caught that... I know that the raptor uses 315/70r17 tires though... Mine came off of a Raptor... I can at least get that right.

Pretty unofficial "official" wheels specs on a knock off. Those are not OEM wheels, since you're being so specific.

Either way, .02 off in either case.
