I've been eyeballing Raptor wheels for quite some time and came across this smoking deal for the beadlock raptor wheels and 35's for $800

Only problem is that the center cap will not fit on the rear wheels because of the irs shaft but I think a 5/16 spacer might do the trick.

Truck has a 2.5" lift front and 2.0" rear and no rubbing issues as of yet.

IRS shaft sticking out the back.

Would it hurt to cut off the end a bit?

I could trim off some of the non-threaded area as long as I don't cut into the threads I would be fine. I am adding a 1/4" spacer and seeing what would need trimming from that point.

Just a thought. Could you pull the shaft and put a spacer on the backside of the hub? The extra distance might be good with the lift. And your wheels won't stick out further than the front and look weird.
