Default wheels and tires

Hey all I have been looking for a new set of wheels and tires but I want them to pop out a little bit past the fender. I have a leveling kit on my truck and found a wheel with a -44 offset I know this is quite a bit but would this be way too much? They have the same wheel with a 0 offset if I wen't with this one would I be able to throw it on a 35" tire or is this tire too big with just a leveling kit? Thanks everyone

Mine have -12mm offset and the tires extend out about an inch and a half. -44 would be too much for my tastes but it really depends on the size tires you are trying to squeeze in there. Mine fit easily with those rims and a leveled front. I could go at least a size larger.

Thanks for the input. I found some wheels with -11 that I was going to go with but then I found the moto metal 962s that I really like but they only come in 0 and -44

Not sure what to tell you other than the -44's will stick out quite a bit and the 0's may not be enough. Figure out what tires you want and read the tire sticky and see if you think you can make it work.

Thanks. I was probably going to order them online but I've been told the 35's won't fit on my truck. But I see people on these forums that say they can run them so I don't know
