Looking to install new wheels and tires best offset with least issues

[Tazman]

I have a 2019 2500 tradesman looking to get new tire and wheels. I am looking at -12 or -18 anyone have pics so I can see how far they stick out also not sure if I show stay with 18”s or go 20”s. And finally, 35”s in 18 or 20, 285/65 20 or 295/70 18. If anyone has pics and suggestions for me I’d appreciate seeing.. Iill also most likely do level kit on front especially if I do 35”s..

except for black decals really hasn’t changed much from pic..

Hi, sorry I don’t have more pics. I was mounting my new 305/70r17 nittos but noticed 2 big gouges and didn’t finish putting them on because they are sending replacements. They are basically 34x12 tires. This is a 17x9 with -12 offset. Stick out about an inch and a half. No leveling kit it may rub on a Heavy bump while turning but not sure yet. When I save enough money I will most likely get a Thuren leveling kit and swaybar.

I am running a 305-65R18 33.5” (per BFG) +18 offset 18x9. Tire poke is a little over a 1”. Pics to follow after the weather warms a bit.

35s will fit on stock wheels and stock suspension with little to no rubbing . +18 through +25 will allow you to fit 37” tires without major modifications.

What width wheels are you thinking? -12 or -18 is going to vary drastically depending on what width you're planning.

I'm guessing you already researched it, but for reference the stock wheels (non power wagon) are 8" wide and +55 ET

If you went with something like a 9" wide wheel with a -12 offset, you'd be moving the inner edge of the wheel outward 54mm (2.13 inches) and the outside edge outward 80mm (3.15 inches)

Or if you went with a 9.5" wide wheel in a -18, you'd be moving the inner edge outward the same 54mm, but the outside edge would move outward 92mm (3.62 inches).

I would recommend researching all of the trucks that have been posted on the custom wheel offset site. Their gallery lets you search by make/model/brand/width/diameter, etc... You can view whatever width/offset wheels you're thinking on a 4th or 4.5gen truck (they'll have the same look in the wheelwells).

Here’s some updated pics. Will update again with driving impressions. Don’t rub but not sure when going over rough roads while Turning yet. Stick out about 2.75 in
