I have the exact same setup with a +18 offset. With the +35 you should not have to trim anything. I had to trim a very small piece off the front valence. No rubbing anywhere else

Rossi, you thought about getting black headlights? Think they would look awesome on your truck.

So I figured out the offset question the more positive the offset the more the rims will be tucked in I want them to stick out a bit to get that beefy look I think the offset u have of +18 would do just fine now I just have to fin the rim with that offset I've only found them with the +35 offset
