Offset and wheel width
Hey everyone. I'm going to have to get new tires soon, and I was planning on getting new wheels along with them. I currently have 285/75r16 tires, but I'm planning on moving up to 305/70r16. No taller but about 2 inches wider. Have plenty of space with my current tires, so I figured a little wider won't hurt, especially with how often I off road. My question is, I want to stance my '99 a little. Nothing super aggressive, but I do want the tires past the fenders some. I'm going to get off road fender flares as well and they protrude probably an additional 3 inches compared to stock, so I want the tires to be out about that far as well. Anyone have any suggestions, ideas, comments? TIA!

I really doubt you are going to find a 16x14 to get the extra offset you want so you should probably look into 2" Bora adapters and 16x10 with around -24mm offset.
With that much offset you will probably need a lift of some sort but I don't know that for sure.

I'm sure I have one somewhere on here. I'll look around and see what I can find. You could always go with the 16x10 at -24 or -36 and just turn you tbars up for the time being.

I'll try and log into my old imgur account and see what I find.
