Backspacing???
My rims(Weld Cheyenne 6) are 17x8.5, Backspace is 4.5 and offset is -6. Wrapped with Mickey Ts MTZ 33x12.5. Went with 17s at the time for a break in price on tires. I really doubt I could go any much bigger.

I like the way your setup is now Especial...If I didnt want a lifted truck, I would have exactly what you did. Nicely chosen.
The part number is 3752936GBMF
Here's a link to some sizes available.

Now I'm confused. The manufacturer part number says 0 offset. That's 4.5 x 2 = 9 wide or zero. Right? Wouldn't -12 be on a 9.5" wide wheel?

Thats not the right calculation to figure out backspace though...you have to either measure the wheel or check whats stamped on the back...and i kinda agree that if they only stick out half an inch then you probably have like a +12 or like jerry says +18 offset....a +12 is a 5.5
Thanks for your input guys, I don't want be spouting disinformation about what fits and doesn't....... Good catch!

hahaha..no problem...it looked similar to what i had plus i have heard and think from experience that theres no way to run a 35 with 4.5" BS (9" wheel). Its no biggie..I was just curious. Im not here to blow up anyones spot or make them feel stupid...i dont see the point in that anyways...Hey, atleast you now know your wheel specs. haha
To OP... please no chrome rockers lol... I would go with a chrome or black /machined rim might check into a Moto metal 951 they are good looking rims (im not a chrome guy but had chrome 951s on my dodge and loved em)
