Default Help deciding wheel offset with bilstien level

I have a 2014 limited screw 4wd, I just ordered the bilstien 5100s and readylift 3" rear blocks. My front will be set to 2.10" highest setting...

My plan is to keep the factory limited 22s for the winter and put a set of Nitto Ridge Grapplers 35x12.50R22 on.

Over the winter i will pick out and order a set of rims for the summer, I'm leaning towards hostile alpha 22x10 then I'll swap the ridge Grapplers from the factory rims to those.

I like the look of a slight negative offset and don't mind trimming the wheel wells.

What should I go with for an offset on the new wheels so these tires will work on both rims? I don't want them to stick out a ton but an inch or so is fine, I'd like a nice lip with minimal rubbing if possible.

What would that look like? Does the stick out, have a lip?

It would stick out an inch past the fenders and look good in my opinion.

Ok, I'll have to try and find some pictures. I was thinking I would be in the -12 range but I'm still a little confused with off sets.

This is a -6 offset with 9" wide wheels which is a backspace of about 4.75".

I'm a fan of the negative offset wheels. Here is a pic of my 2013 with 20x10 Hostile Alpha's with a -19 offset.

Which height is your lift at? Any rubbing with the 35s?

Are those 33s? Are you lifted or leveled? Truck looks nice!

It has a 2in autospring leveling kit and I run a 305/55r20. That is 33.4in tall and 12.3in wide.
