the less the offset the farther the wheel will stick out of the wheel weel. It should make it not rub..that is alot of offset.

To far and you'll be going through wheel bearings pretty quick.

Also some states have laws and the wheels can't stick out more than a certian distance from the side of the fender. You can get fender flares to fix this though, but they can be pricy!
