Wheels

[Wren]

Hey everyone. I am going to be putting a 6" lift on my truck and I am wanting new wheels. This is what it looks like now

I am running 35x12.50 on an 8" wheel with stock offset. What I want is the wheel and tire to stick out some. What offset should I run. I hate the bubble look I have now.

You could use a wheel spacer to make it stick out. What do you mean by bubble look?

 

[Wren]

The tire is to wide for the wheel and has a bubble look to it. So I am gonna go wider to give it a flatter look and wondering the offset. The sidewall "bubbles" out from the wheel.

Usually a wider wheel makes that problem worse.

More negative the offset, the more it sticks out, more positive, the further it tucks in the fender well. 20x10 -12,-24, and etc will stick out nicely.

^whs. I like a 20x10 combo on most trucks

Im going to be staying with the 17" tires I have, just changing the wheels to a -12 maybe? Thanks for the info.

Im surprised you found aftermarket 17s that fit over the calipers. I know that there have been a lot of guys say they couldn't fit aftermarket 17s but I haven't tried any personally.
