LT1-YJ, thank you for explaining that so nicely, I was also wondering why it would be funny that a different wheel would be backordered.

 

i tried to get the 7" wide at my local tire shop and they also said it was backorded, came home and ordered all 5 - thats why i thought it was funny, just thinking you might want to check again thats all -- i believe some of these places hire people who don't want to look for something or don't care to look up something for you and they just say "oh yeah thats backordered" i understand that the 8" is a diff. wheel and that they are more popular also but like i said i think you should try again, maybe even the same places and you might get a diff. answer -----
