Check out my build thread.....I have the 6" RCX with 20x10 -24mm offset fuel lethals, 35x12.5R20......they will fit fine under it just a matter of taste of what your wanting. +offset sets your tires more up and under the fender -offset sticks them out past the fender like mine is. The back spacing aids in this as well but most after market wheels come with a 4.5"-5" back spacing. The only issue that you may have is a little bit of rubbing on the plastic on the front bumper if you go with a negative offset and its a simple cut and you won't even notice the difference.

U don't adjust anything, and nothing comes with the kit. Order ur wheels based on how aggressive u want ur stance. Like a 20x9-12 will stick out more than a 20x9 0

Yea the -18 offset would be sticking out more than the 0

Just picked my truck up today. It has 6" rough country and I'm running 35x12.50x20 nitto trail grapplers. Wheels have 5" backspacing. When ordering your wheels get between 4.5 to 5" and everything will be fine.

Where did you buy your tires from?

So when you buy your tires it'll ask you what offset and back spacing you want? Or if you buy a certain tire it'll automatically come with a certain offset and back spacing ?

I want 1 inch of wheel sticking out so I don't know what off set and back spacing that is. I either want 20x9/10 or 18x9

I looked on Amazon and the tires don't say what off set and back spacing they have? Can someone just send a link to some nitto trail grapplers 35x12.50x18 with 9 inch wide, a 35x12.50x20 with 9 inch wide and a 35x12.50x20 with a 10 inch wide rim. 3 tires please. For the rough country 6" inch lift.

Tires don't have offsets and back spacing. Wheels do.

Alright... let me break it down.

Wheel/rim (interchangeable term) has back spacing and offset, NOT the tire. Like stated above a negative offset will push the wheel out
(example would be 18x9 ET -12)

A POSITIVE offset will keep the wheel tucked under your wheel well
(Example would be 18x9 ET +18)

If you want it sticking out an inch I'd go with an 18x9 or 20x9 with either a +18 offset, or a 0 offset.


TIRES

Your tires are simply going to give you the size. There is high floatation (35x12.50). And then there is metric (295/70r18).

Every tire company has their tire specs listed on the company website. Use the site and you'll be good to go.
