Hi guys, looking to get some 15x10 rims for my 35x13.5x15 mudzillas i just purchased and wondering what offset i should get them? I want them out wide so they don't hit the leaf springs at the front of my truck (84 surf).
Cheers in advance, Tim

Re: what offset rims??????
if you're buying white spokes, i'm fairly certain they only come in one offset (-44)

have just done a quick calculation and there is bugger all difference
backspace on an 8" rim is roughly 92.3mm
backspace on a 10" rim is roughly 95.7mm
so I think





but 10" rims do look cool
my calculations were based on a 10" rim with -44 and 8" rim with -22 offset

Re: what offset rims??????
the main place of tire rub is at the rear of the front wheel opening against the firewall most just remove the plastic inner guard and carefull fold over the panel.. ( just beat the shit out of it with the biggest hammer you can find ) It may take abit of work as its multi skinned (lots of beating)
cheers
