Buyer's Remorse for New Wheels

Edit: by popular demand, skipping the long story

TL;DR
I bought four of the same wheel twice at a $850 loss, just so I could have a +10mm offset instead of a -12mm offset. The -12mm would've looked way better. I also should've gotten 33's instead of 32's. If you're shopping for wheels and you're torn over the offset, just get 0mm. And go with 33's. You're not going to wake up one day and think to yourself, "man, these tires are just too big". You may wake up and think, "man, these 32's are too small". But I suppose it's all subjective.

I did not read your entire manifesto, but the truck looks pretty bad ass to me. But if it does not trip your trigger then sell and get something else.

 

Nice setup.

 

I guess one way out of that pickle would be to get 1" Bora wheel spacers (this would effectively turn your +10mm offset into -15mm)... Bora also makes ¾" thick spacers too, although they may require you trim the wheel studs if there are no recesses on the backside of your wheels (this would change +10mm to roughly -10mm (-9mm to be precise)).

 

Same here, I did not read the entire essay, LOL

Looks good to me!

 

Sorry, I didn't look at the wall of copy. Just looked at the pix. Nice setup.

 

Same with the lengthy narrative...Wow! lol

I did notice the Fendys!

I have the same style fender flares (I've got Bushwackers) and have time to think about what size wheels/tires and pokey.

The photos definitely assist with visualization.

Truck looks good!

 

I agree with others I didn’t read the entire post it was giving me a headache…. The truck looks good to me!

 

I like the wider tires...but would probably choose the Non-33s...which are in the bottom photo.

 

I don't notice any difference in your before and after pics.
Maybe you're overthinking things.

 

Damn, that was a lot of words I didn’t read. I don’t usually advocate for the Heritage grill, but in your case it would look pretty good on that set up.

 

Welcome from Denver!

 

I feel like you really missed an opportunity to use this emoji here: .

Too long did not read. However, I did appreciate your use of paragraphs.

 

Not enough difference to notice……

 

Well, I suspect you win the award for the longest 1st post ever.

 

wheel spacers....

 

Measure once, cry twice...

 

I see what you did there! lol
