Default need some input...04 fx4

i bought my truck a few months back, and im looking at giving it a little lift, so here are some questions :

the rims are helo he791 18" , how do i find out the offset and the rim width ? i have looked but haven't found anything.

now the tires.. they are 285/60/18 nittos.

i am thinking about upgrading to a 2.5" level kit, do 35's look to crammed? was thinking about maybe going to some 33"s but not sure yet. any input or pics would be helpful ..thanks

You've got a 6x135mm bolt pattern, and the only size that 4wheelparts shows that wheel in is:
HE791 Maxx 6 - Black
  • He791 Maxx 6 - Black
  • 18X9, 6 On 135 Bolt Pattern
  • Backspace 5.39In.
  • Max Load = 2200Lbs
  • Finish = Gloss Black Machined
  • Hubcentric = No
35s are the standard for the 04-08 leveled 4x4s, look at some of the picture threads and see what you think.

If you can, go 295/70-18s. Big enough to look good, but they dont rub. Nitto makes them in a terra and a trail grappler.
