I really like those alot, it gives the truck a whole new look. What backspace did you go with? If you get a chance, could you take a picture from the front and back to show if they stick out at all? That is one of the problems that I'm having right now. I put the XD Spy wheels on my truck and was told that I have to go with the -12 offset to keep the tire from rubbing the A-Arm. The thing I don't like is that the -12's make the tires stick out about 2-3 inches.

they are only 2mm farther out then stock, so no real difference.

2mm would be perfect. So you got the +18 offset, correct? This is how much the -12 offset sticks out.

Both trucks look great! So the offset is how you get the wheel to peek out?

yeah the stock rims are +20 so the less you go the more they are going to stick out and the more you go the more they are going to tuck in

i like the -12 offset too
what size tires are those??

The tires are the Toyo Open Country M/T's in 33x12.50x20. It's a good tire and this is my second set of Toyo M/T's but it does take away from the smoothness of the ride a bit. I miss the way my truck rode when stock and I have ordered a set of Cooper Zeon LTZ's to put on the Spy's to see if that will help any with them sticking out as much. The Toyo's stick out 1.5" past the face of the wheel so there is alot of sidewall and big lugs on the sidewall. Here is a profile picture of what the tires look like.
