    Actually I don’t know. Maybe some 1” Spidertrax would do it for me.

    They do. It's either negative, 0, or positive.

    I'd advise against spacers unless you need them to clear suspension. Ask @ajmogen about that

    All kinds do. The ones I just ordered were available as 0, or -12mm. It seems like most wheels are available in different offsets. Do some shopping around. Or, buy Ray 10's like half of Tacomaworld. :rofl:

    It seems like my wheels are already -10 mm and if I wanted much more than that I’d have to move to 17”. Sound about right?

    Scratch that. The SCS F5 and Stealth come in -25.

    This seems to be a common theme right now. I ordered mine on November 16 and they arrived Monday. They're still at the shop waiting for rubber. :playball:

    That’s a 0 offset with a 4.5 backspace.

    This is a good look, IMO. I prefer having the tires flush to the fender.

    A little bit of poke can look good. But some take it too far. Those "bro" trucks with 6" of tire sticking out look silly to me. Plus, that's illegal in some places, if I'm not mistaken.

    If you do decide to get higher offset wheels and want to sell these let me know ;)

    I'll just add there is nothing wrong with a good quality hub centric wheel spacer. If you like the look of your wheels you can buy a 0.75" or 1" BORA/spidretrax spacer. Yes, the affective moment on the wheel bearing is greater and the scrub radius changes, but it's minimal. If you're worried about safety, don't be. For comparison, its common to use spacers in on-road and off-road race applications. Problems occur when there is user installation error and/or spacer quality.

    Of course you start needing some of that poke to run better than stock suspension. I’m about to do a shock relocate and put king 2.5 12” smoothie shocks in the rear. I’m hoping my 3.5 backspace wheels are enough to clear the new shocks, but it may not be. I may need a spacer on top of that for my 295s and definitely will need one if I jump to 315s.


    My poke is pretty strong especially without flares. But it’s necessary for what I want with my truck. It’s messy when I wheel, but I like the way it looks too

    At least I don’t look like this :notsure:
