    I've read the sticky and other material online and have an idea of the concept of how it works. However, even if I understood it very well, I still wouldn't know how much offset/backspacing would look good to me. A picture is worth a thousand words, as they say.

    Looking for side shots of your truck and what backspacing you have.
    I would ideally like my new Mud Terrains to stick out a little.. 1", maybe 1.5" maybe even more.. Need to see pics to make the call.

    Thanks

    That's right on the money there!

    So 4.5" is a nice mild "stick out" factor.
    would 5" stick out more, or would it be less?

    5" BS would stick out .5" less.
