    Hey all, did as much research as I could but still need help. I have a 13 taco with a 3" sus lift. I just recently tried to install my wheels and had an issue, Im not to efficient when it comes to wheel offsets and sizing so I was going through a friend prior to buying the wheels. I have 18x9 ballistic jesters with a +12 offset and 285/65R18 terra grapps. The wheels are touching the caliper before they are even halfway on. Any suggestions on what offset Ill need to have a good fit and still avoid as much rubbing as possible? Also trying to avoid spacers. Thanks for your time.

    I've read elsewhere on here that you should be looking for 0 or -12 offset

    Thanks man, I just found out a lot of guys run a -12 with 4.5" backspacing which should do the trick.
