Wheels/ Tires
I'm wanting to get some new wheels and tires for the D. I'm wanting to get the biggest tires possible (32s when D is lifted 2inches i believe), and have them wider than stock. I also love the offset look that Duranged(?) has, but i have no idea if that is a suspension thing or just a matter of wider tires. So if you guys could either give me the stock tire sizes or give me some recommendations on some tires.

Im with you, i like a balanced offset rim, but the issue i'd take into count is if you want to save your paint job 
Extra width with no aftermarket flares can lead to a dirty D. They may also cause extra strain on the hubs but with my abuse mine has still held up peachy.
I run a 33x12.50 tire on a 15x10 rim, i think the bs is 4.5 but cant remember. I just scathed by with little mods to the fenders having a 3" bdy and T/S so keep that in thought. You have a better chance of getting by with stock offset on a 8" rim

Ok... First off, i normally don't want my d dirty, but i think we're talking about something completely different. But IMO, a little mud on the d makes it look better. And what is b.s. (I'm guessing it doesn't mean bull s***)? Also, what do you mean by "stock offset on an 8" rim"?
Its easy to get dirty if ya find the right place
