Just got a smoking deal from a desperate duramax owner. They are a month old and look awesome! I however don't know the offset.

Thanks guys!! Yes it came with the hub caps but I didn't like the way the chrome looked so kept them off.

Your 285/70r17 on 17x9's w/ -12 offset looks like a perfect match to those flares. I love the stance. :dunno:

 

What type/size fender flares do you have?

Thanks guys I took a few DSLR pics i'll have to post. Those are the factory flares and I think they are just perfect. I never was the biggest fan of the black 951's but I think everything looks just perfect!

What size do you think id need to get that exact stance or pretty close on a 1500 swb silverado? I want some 959s but not sure what size to go with to avoid needing a lift or rubbing horribly. I don't mind cutting back plastic in the wheel well to stop the rubbing but don't wanna grind anything.

Well on my truck the front has a much wider track width than the rear as you can see in the above photo. I imagine these have the -12mm offset because of how far the front sticks out. These 285's rubbed a lot especially with the offset but a little trimming of the lower part of the bumper and back of the wheel well and zip tying back the wheel well liners in front of the tires I have no rubbing at full lock both sides and both directions. I can snap a few photo's tomorrow for you if you'd like. Also I do have the truck close to level by cranking the torsion bars, without that they would have required a complete hack job. Make sure to get an alignment after you level your truck!
