MRtackle, I am in the same situation! What did you end up doing? Do you have a picture?
Triniline, where did you get them plastidipped? Did you need to take the rubber off? Those look great!
Thx, scori

I've searched this forum and google for the past hour and I can't seem to find out what the offset is for my stock wheels! I've been going back and forth about either getting new tires, new wheels, or both. I'd like to know what my current offset is so I can look for aftermarket wheels. If I go with new tires AND wheels, I'll be going for the squared off look (trying to make the tires pretty much EVEN with the body of my truck or even with the stock fender flares).
On my window sticker it says: 18" CAST ALUM WHEELS
I'm attaching a photo of them so you can see which ones they are.

The offset on your rims are 44+

I am in this same exact situation. Can the op or anyone else give some more info on what looks best? I'd like the rim to be flush with the fenders as well. This info seems hard to come by for some reason

Looks great Trinilime. Any other pictures of the full truck with Platidip wheels to get the full effect. I have the same wheels on my STX and would love a new set of wheels but at this point, it could hold me over for a while. How has it been holding up for you with regular washing and brake dust, road grime/salt?
Thank You

white08gt - it is 18x7.5 with a 44mm stamped on the backside of the rim.

white08gt is correct.
I had one of my stock 18 inch FX4 wheels off because of a flat on my fabulous stock Goodyear RSA and he is correct. 18X7.5 jx 44. That means +44 offset. Definitive proof I'd say. +1

Easy way to plastidip wheels is to stuff index cards around the wheel lip. Spray and remove cards.

^^ exactly how i've painted a set of rims in the past using index cards. I have the exact same set of wheels and would love to get some aftermarket wheels but just wont have the money all at once for awhile. I think I might wait out the winter here in PA and plastidip mine in the spring time.
