New rims and tires...

I decided to get 18x9 +12 offset rims for my truck. I'm posting to give other members an idea what this would look like. Not many people running 18s and it was a real pain to find information on how this would look. I learned a lot this trip through and pretty happy. I did have to move the fender liners forward a little and I trimmed the mudflap where it sticks out in front of the body mount. I did this so I could keep the mud flaps on without rubbing at all. I go camping and would be mad if this thing started rubbing while trying to back the camper into a site.... and I think I'm going to go higher.

Tires are Buckshot XMT Mudders that I got on ebay. They took a decent amount of weights to get balanced but so far they aren't bad at all on the highway.

Front fender moved forward

Mud flap trimmed... heated up the loose part to get it to form to the back a little. So now it doesn't come close to the tire.

I am running 00mm offset with 18*9. My tires are flush with the fender line. What tire size you running?

What is that thing on the front bumper
 
Fine tune, tune up and tune in to what's new and notable in tires and wheels. Suspension, brakes and other parts and accessories, too.Everything you'll need for road trips, trips to the store or simply to just make life a trip.

275/65/18... .I wanted to get more negative offset, but I figured it would be pretty close to the edge.. I'd rather be a little in, this would prevent me from getting pulled over for a BS reason. Some cops in the past with my lifted 88 would give me a real hard time... but that was almost 15 years ago. I guess now I try to be sure I wont be given any crap.
