Another rim/tire fitment thread question

[000Triple000]

So I have been digging digging through forums and I have a quick fitment question. I have a 1998 SC 4runner 4x4 manual...

I have
Front Shocks
OME-90004-P - Old Man Emu Front Nitrocharger Sport Shocks

Front Coils
OME-883 Front Coils

Rear Coils
OME-891 - Old Man Emu Rear Springs

Rear Shocks
1 x OME-60028-P - OME Nitrocharger Sport Rear Shocks - Medium Valving

Shrockworks Front bumper

I want to run 18x9 with a tire 33x12.5x18
..
Can I run these rims, if so would a -12 offset be ideal or would I want to run larger or smaller offset
..
I am trying to stay away from spacers if possible, but would run them if I had too. Not sure if I would need a spacer with my lift setup, and If I did, what spacer would be needed. I know people are throwing around BS numbers but It starts to confuse me at that point as I usually just look at offset. I know stock rim size (which I have on there now) is +15 offset. I currently have a 265/75/16.

Out of curiosity, why are you using an 18-inch rim for off-road, since it reduces the sidewall available for flexing while airing down, and probably is stiffer sidewall, making an aired-down ride really stiff?

With stock UCA’s you’ll for sure need spacers.

Ok thats what I was wondering. Wasn't sure. Thank you. Was trying to find a -12 offset to help combatant the size.

I don't offroad too much tbh. Some light trails is all I will see. Its mainly used for a daily driver. I just looked the like of a smaller sidewall vs a fat tire and smaller rim. I have thought about the 17 vs an 18. I read up on the differences and there wasn't going to be much difference on road but offroad there would be a tad. Then again since it's my daily. I knew I wouldn't be wheeling it too hard
