295/70/18 with +18 or +12 offset?

[ChemGuy]

Looking into ordering a set of wheels for my truck. I would be swapping the 295/70's off my factory wheels and putting them on the new ones. I am curious if I need to worry about any rubbing at a +12 or +18 offset? +20 keeps them tucked a little more than I'd like. I've read on a few other posts that with a 0 offset they rub on a 2.5" level. Mine is 1.5" level, want to avoid having to do any major trimming. Curious to see pics and hear about experiences with specifically 295/70/18's (18" wheels obviously) at either +12 or +18 offset.

+20 with 295’s sticks out about 3/4” on my truck. No running with a 2” level, mine is a Tremor.

What level are you running? Any rubbing? Any chance you could post a few pics? It seems like each wheel is a little different, 3/4" would be enough poke for me, I've seen some pics of +20 wheels and it seemed like they were under the wheel well further than I want.

I have that on +18. Looking from the back they do stick out more than I thought they would. Definitely wouldn’t go 0 or 12 but that’s me. 2” level no rubbing. I can take some pics tomorrow if you’d like when it’s daylight again

3/4” poke sounds about right. Just enough that it won’t throw mud and dirt all over the side of your truck

Pics would be great. I took off a set of 22x10 -18 to go back to stocks and 295's. I definitely don't want to go back to having an absolutely filthy truck every time it's not completely dry outside, but do want a little bit more of an aggressive look than the stock offset. Not really interested in using spacers to achieve that look either.

No rubbing. I was originally going to go with the +1 offset in the same wheel, but glad I went with +20. Be prepared to spray a lot more dirt and crap up the side of your truck.

Its all about the offset as you know .

I was able to fit 35x12.5x17 with a 2.5 Bils 6112 set up on Raptor takeoffs. Zero rub or cutting.

That's pretty much exactly what I'm looking for. Still curious to see some +18 but as of now it looks like +20 fits what I'm looking for. Thanks for the pics!

Yeah, offset is everything. I knew the fitment of pretty much every combo for the 12th gens. Had mine for 4 years with several different sets of wheels/tires. I managed to get the look I wanted without trimming anything but the valance/mud flap. The 14th gens are my first experience with crash bars etc. And a much nicer truck that I refuse to excessively trim lol. I also don't want to level any more than 1.5". With the topper on this truck and somewhat frequently towing it sits pretty much level while loaded, depending on how much crap we bring with us on trips.

I did 285 in 18s on a +20

Do you have more angles of yr truck. Im gonna run 2.5 bil 6112s. And still up
In the air with either 285/70/18 or 295/70/18. I really wanna go 285s. Since they’re lighter. Just afraid they might look small. Yr truck looks awesome with that size.

That looks great. I think I probably can't go wrong with either +18 or +20.
