I'm hoping to get some tires in within the next few weeks so I can install them while I have access to a heated garage for some other work I've got to do. I've got a 2500 SLT with factory 265x70r17 tires, and am thinking of going to a 17x9" wheel with a -6 offset with a 33x12.5 tire.
I've read that I'll need a wheel with a different offset but nothing I read really covers what kind of offset. I'd like to avoid the roller skate look, but have no idea if -6 is going to poke the wheels WAY out. If it matters much My interest in is the Duratracs I've had them in the past and they did well year round. I have considered an MT but really don't know much about using them with towing.
I'd also like to know if a wheel with a 3400lb max load is enough. I've got a particular wheel I like and have had on multiple jeeps over the years, I would like to keep that trend going.
