Which offset to choose?

LaserBlueZ71 · September 8, 2013

+18 or -12

This is the wheel. Size is 18x9. Truck will have a Rancho 4'' lift kit on it.

+ 18 if you want the tire flush with the fender, - 12 if you're looking for a little wider stance.

^^^ what he said. My 18x9, +18 offset rims sit right at the edge of the fender. The general consensus seems to be that it looks better to run a negative offset rim if you have a lifted truck.

Edit....as long as your tires will still fit...

-12 looks blah

At least plus 18. Personally I hate it when the tires are out past the wheel well. It looks stupid as sh%t!

I went with a -11 offset on my last truck and I regretted it. I have a basically brand new set of wheels and tires sitting in my garage because I no longer wished to run a negative offset. So I bought a new set of wheels and tires which I will have on Wednesday. If you like the ''wider stance'' look and have them sticking about an inch or so out then get them but you should get fender flares to prevent rocks and crap being thrown up at your paint and some states have laws that require flares for anything that sticks out.

It's tough to find a nice wheel with a good offset.

All of my wheel choices are leaving me with 0MM, 18MM or 35MM offset. Keep in mind with my soon to be lifted truck, the BDS kit will push my front stance out 1.5 inches on each side I believe.

You'll be just fine. Lifted trucks with the tires sucked in look like they're on pizza cutters and are going to tip over. I'm running a -24 offset and I want "more wide." I personally wouldn't go with anything less than a 10" wide wheel on a lifted truck. But of the ones you listed I'd steer clear of the +35.

I need help on what size wheels to run on a 2500. Its stock hight. Im trying to get the wider stance without lifting it.i looked at getting 20×12 with -44 offset but i think it might rub to much.
