265/70/17 tire on 8.5 wheels -6 offset?

[scd969]

I'm about to pull the trigger on new wheels and tires and would like a little feedback to make sure I'm not screwing anything up. The 8.5 wheel with -6 offset will push out the wheel almost 2 inches (49mm) from the stock sport wheel. I see a lot of guys running 275 or 285s with that offset, but haven't found anyone running 265s.

Is there anything I should be concerned about?

Would it look dumb having narrower tires out that wide?

If it makes any difference, I'll be moving the bilsteins up another notch to 1.75 and adding a 1.5 rear spacer when I put the wheels on.

Thanks in advance.

Not having done it, I wouldn't expect any problems. A lot of people run 1.5" wheel spacers with stock tires (smaller) and a small lift and they look fine

I'm putting 255/75/17 on SCS SR8 wheels (-10 offset) later next year

Look through the lift/tire picture thread, should find a similar setup
