Default Black Steel Wheel Opinions

I'm looking to get black steels for my Dak and am gonna get some 31" BFG All Terrain T/A's for them.

Just wondering what kind of black steel wheels other people are running. Also I wanted to offset the wheel a bit, not much, maybe have it stick out of the wheel well an inch or so.What kind of offset or backspace would I need for this?

I always get confused with backspace and offset. I assume 16" X 8" would be the best choice for wheels?


Thanks.

These wheels would be my personal choice. But I'm not sure they're going to have enough offset to give you the look you want. They'll probably be pretty close, though.

For tires, I'd probably go with a 275/70R16. That will be nice and wide, and right about 31" tall.
