Id go with a different wheel if i were you, it seems like those are more street wheels than offroad wheels. If you're going with black, id go with XD Monsters, thats what i have, those and Moto Metals, seem to be the most popular. Id stick with the 35x12.50s on the tires. Like James said, youll want a negative offset. If you go with the Monsters, go with the -12mm offset like Bigun said. So yeah id go with the 35x12.50s with a -12mm offset wheel.

Oh damn, both those trucks look sick! FSUFAN, i might take your advice and pick a new rim. I have a red truck also and those rims you're running look great and give me a great idea of what they'd look like on my truck.

BIGGUN: What width are those tires? and make? and lift kit? im really liking the way that truck is standing and will be going with a 6inch aswell. Do you have anymore pics?
do you think 35x13.5 toyo m/t would rub too much? or should i go with a less agressive tread to fit 13.5" width? Just trying to pick out the perfect rim and tire set up for my truck.

Thanks for the reply guys! finally know the offset i need

Cool thanks man, good to know that i can run 35x13.5 with no worries. Just need to pick out the lift, tires and rims lol. Kinda leaning towards the Fabtech 6" performance coilover system with performance shocks.

Truck looked awesome, don't know how you could let it go.
