thanks i will be looking at those rims!
How much mm offset will it take to set the tire out 1.5 inches from fender

tfpets · 09-09-2008, 01:26 AM

Not real sure?...But this is what they would look like on a first gen with 32x11.50s...you dont have a lot of options on offset with cheap wheels...its usually a 4 in. "backspace" on an 8" wide wheel...

not soft 8's but same offset and size

***Donahue*** · 09-09-2008, 01:44 AM

a 4" BS rim (8" wide) will stick out 2.5" more than stock with the same size tire.

NorthernCrew · 09-09-2008, 07:13 PM

this is what im looking for

bubbagt57 · 09-09-2008, 08:22 PM

then that's what you want basically a 2wd offset on our 4x4s

Here's mine with 33" BFG's. But I am running a Long Travel kit so that gained me an extra 1.5" over stock per side. The rims are the Soft 8's 17x8, 0 offset with 4.5" BS. The links are to the fullsize photo.

Here's with 1.5" wheel spacers installed on the front:

Here's the info from Unique's website www.uniquewheel.com:

RIM SIZE-------------- BOLT CIRCLE------------- OFFSET (+/-)MM--------------- BACKSIDE SETTING

17x8--------------------- 5-4.75---------------------- 0------------------------------- 4 1/2"

NorthernCrew · 09-09-2008, 09:26 PM

would i run into any problems with a 4" offset?

Tim99Zr2 · 09-09-2008, 10:06 PM

wear on ball joints and wheel bearings will be worse.

a 4" offset would be like a dually rim. 4" backspace is likely what you meant.

NorthernCrew · 09-09-2008, 10:37 PM

yes 4" backspace!

dang donahue you've been correcting me all day!

Swamper · 09-16-2008, 01:49 PM

will those soft 8's (http://store.summitracing.com/partde...700+4294923106) fit my 2002, regular cab? How about 31/10.50/15 tires?
