    Aloha tacoma world! Been looking into getting these rims and was debating on whether to get the 0mm offset or -25mm offset. I have read mixed things on long term effects on negative offset wheels and was wondering if I could get some advice on the positive/negative aspects of wheels. Appreciate any feedback, thanks in advance!

    It's really very negligible if offset does increase wear. I've seen trucks with much more severe offset go years without impact.

    Might be overthinking this one a tad. ;)

    Here is what -25 offset changes

    Here is what 0 offset changes

    Offset is not the only thing to consider, backspacing also plays a key role, and it's the difference between stock and new. My main concern would be the scrub radius changing, this will effect steering and handling and is the main contributor to early wear of parts.
