Unfortunately I don't know much about offsets, so I can't really be any help with that

Stock is +44 and my wheels sit way inside the fenders now +6 is 38mm further towards the fender, or 1.5" wider, so flush or barely outside the fender will be fine, especially when I slap some 305/50/20's on it.

Well for one, I work hard, help with EVERTHING (cleaning house, cooking dinner, laundry, etc). I don't party and go to bars, have no bad vices, and she understands my truck is my one hobby. She gets it.

Nothing wrong with a wider stance, +6 not exactly a negative offset, don't worry about it.

Oh I agree, wider is better. My plan is a 3/5 drop eventually, but I will have to move up to 22's for that to happen.
