Yes 113 front & rear.

I originally got 113 & 121 for the rear, but the face didn't change, just the machining where it mounts to the drum.

I *finally* got mine on the Vendo. I've had them for over a year now, but no time to do the 4" beam.

I'm running 121's in the front and 113's in the rear.
Like Fish says, the face doesn't change it's just the backspacing.

121's are a narrower track than the 113's Weird way to label them, but that's how it works.

Anyway here's a couple shots.

If you don't have anything drop me a PM and I can set you up.
I'll need to know what they are going on to figure the thread size.

Finally got my tires mounted to my rims. Thanks to Greg (Mr. Warehouse) for the Chrome lugbolts. Very Happy
