17" wheel (& offset) recommendation

[GeminiZ06]

Hi everyone! Newbie here to the forum. I need to replace my stock tires on a fully stock 2016 Power Wagon - but I want to go with the 35" Duratrac's as opposed to 33" as well as 17" black wheels instead of the OEM chrome.

What is the recommended offset and rim width?
Should 18" wheels be considered instead?

I spent 30 minutes searching and failed to find an answer to this specific question. Thank you in advance.

+18 to +27 offset is what to aim for.

18" tires seem to have better load rating, 17 has way more options in some of the bigger sizes.

17x8.5 +27mm offset will work great 35 or 37.

I would say 18" wheels have one advantage and that is balancing weights are easier for tire shops that don't know what they are doing. Also a 285/75-18 is a nice size 35

CJC has taken the time to get a few 17" wheels made with the proper offsets.

I went with the Method 704 HD's. With a 37x13.5 I have no rubbing on radius arms or sway bar. Minimal pinch weld trimming.
