I’m always curious with the 35s because some trucks seem to have room for days and looks really good and others not so much. I want to do 35s when it’s time to replace

The difference in offset of the wheels is where the rub gets ya , factory is +19 mm to my knowledge ( so tucked in board ) when you start going negative offset like -12 , -24 and more is where you get into the rub zone ..... different tire widths also aid in this as I think most guys with -12 usually have no rub but -24++ gets the rub [emoji1360]

I'm on 35x12.5 on 20x10 -24, and I rub. Full lock on reverse, and maybe just a touch during braking turns.

295/65/20’s are one size bigger than 35’s and I’ve got o problem with a 0 offset wheel.
I like the "0" off set personally , some tire sticking out but not too much imo and very safe on not rubbing as well , I like the look of -12 & -24mm but for me I'll likely be going with the Zero offset [emoji1360]

I agree. Thing is, I have had a hard time finding a 0 offset I like.

Also have had problems finding wheels with not much lip. I don’t care for deep lip wheels at all. I want something to stick out a bit, but not too much as I can’t go much bigger if any than stock tire size because I don’t want to move to an LT tire. Things weigh enough already rotating them without adding another 20 lbs to each corner that I don’t need.

I didn't want to be another Fuel wheel fanboy, so I looked elsewhere. The wheels I liked only came in -24. -12 might have been better.

I’m running a -24 offset I actually like the deep lip lol. I guess that’s where I’m going to come into some problems with 35s maybe I could go to a 34ish size and be good? I just know that these 33x12.50 I have now look small to me and makes me wish everyday I get in my truck that I would have went bigger.

I swear I hate seeing the trucks with the bills at 2.8. I wish I would have maxed mine out from the get go. Now when I get time, I get to spend the weekend tearing everything out again and moving them up. You live and learn I guess.

I have had my truck 2 years and I’m still on the fence when it comes to it. I’m probably going to get the bils this summer lol. 2.1 is what I’m going with as I’m 100% NOT going over 33” which is stock. I’m worried 2.8 will look weird and also, I want to keep my stock UCA’s for
The time being. I want subtle. I strongly
Believe what they look like with 2.1 is what they should look like from stock. I HATE how low my truck looks. Drives me crazy lol. Anyways, rant over [emoji1787]
