What bad info have you come across that has you worried? I had them on my 06 mega cab and I know a few people on here who are running them and have had no problems. You need to ask when you buy make sure they are steel and what load they have been tested for! Most of the people who knock the the adaptors and big rig wheels can't afford them so they just bash them

I have had my 22.5's from American Force Wheel Co on about two weeks. I am very happy with them so far. I was really suprised how little weight it took to balance them. The most weight used was two ounces on the left front. The others took less weight to balance. I have only put on a little less than one thousand miles so far, but everything is good at this point.

My adapters are fine. They were VERY TIGHT to put on (which is good). I have about 5,000 miles on mine so far.
