    I currently run stock Offroad Wheels ( 7” width +25 offset), I run them with a 1.25” (31.7mm) Spidertrax spacer. Running a 265/75/16 tire.

    I like the stance in this config, would like to replicate it on a set of SCS, or maybe Method rims not sure yet. Would like to stick with 16” and the 265/75/16 tire, but rim will likely increase to 8” width.

    Feel free to correct me if I’m off base here. Using the Spidertrax is giving me a -6.7mm equivalent offset?

    So if I go to an 8” wide rim I’d like to stick to a roughly 0mm offset, that should give me about the same “poke” in terms of stance, it’ll move the rim and tire 19mm closer to suspension components but should still clear as it’ll be 12mm further away than it is with stock rims and no 1.25mm spacer?

    Feel free to tell me I’ve completely bungled that lol.

    Correct. The 7” wheel with the spacer has approx. a 4.75 backspace and the 8” will have a 4.5 backspace with a 0 offset wheel.
