I am looking to buy some new rims and am wondering what would be a good mm offset for truck?? I'd like something that looks good and is offset by and 3/4" or 1" outside of the body....?? But is still kinda practical. They've got to be 17'' rims......

had a 03 cummins with -24 offset on a 37X13.5 about a quarter to half the tire was sticking out. so you might want to go alittle smaller

What size tires are you looking to run? And what's your suspension setup? I can tell you exactly what width/offset to order to achieve that look if you give me a few more details.

A 17x9 -12 offset will put you right at that 3/4" - 1" past the fender.

Thanks man!
