    I decided to go with the Fuel Octanes 17x8.5, but after talking to the wheel shop, they confused me with what offset I need. My 2013 Tacoma TRD Sport 2x4 has a stock offset of +30, so I thought +14 would do the trick. The wheel shop said I should go with -5 offset. I don't want the wheels sticking out too far, because of state laws (HI).My truck will be lifted once the wheels go on (3" Toytec Boss with UCA). Any suggestions on the offset I should go with? Thanks.

    Back spacing is almost more important on these trucks. -10 offset with a 4.3 BS is optimal for an mild aggressive look. I wouldn't do a positive offset on these trucks. -5 should be good for what you are looking for.
