This is with +10, the lower the number the mire it sticks out, so when you turn at full turn the tire will hit the upper control arm, with factory offset and my 2" leveling kit I could have fit 35's with my new rims I'll be lucky to squeeze 295-70-17's under it

I'd get them in +18, where are you in Louisiana? I'm in Kaplan and I bought mine from xclusive auto in erath, I called the owner, he asked if my truck was 4x4 I said yeah, he asked if it was leveled, lifted, or factory, I said leveled, he said I needed +10-+25 I picked out the rims I wanted I had the option of +10, 0, or -10, he said he would get the +10 since it was just leveled, he ordered them the Wednesday, they were installed the Friday. The owner Brody is really cool and really helpful, if you around the area and want his number pm me and I'll give it to you
