Default 26's on an 08 dakota!!

hello everyone this is my first post on this site and there are going to be some people that hate it and some that love it so lets get it started....I have a 08 dakota with a 2in daystar leveling kit and a PA 3in bodylift that i am waiting to put on until i buy my rims.But here is the thing i have been wondering and this is the place where i will probably get the awnser.The rims i want to get are 26x10 and the tire size i am looking at is a 295/30/26 with the over all diameter of 33in...what offset would be the best so they dont poke out and would a 305/30/26 fit (33.2in) with the lift i got?Any help would be awsome!!

I like the truck except the 24 emblem on the front fender. The color is obnoxious but in a good way when combined with the wheels! It would definitely catch my attention driving down the road!

My local tire store has a deal going on 26" wheels right now. Buy a set and you get a mail in coupon for a free one of these:

That's great Hammer.

But I gotta see a Dakota on 26's, the 24's look huge enough.
