[QUOTE="EricM, post: 1869907, member: 20286"] Your goal is to keep it as close to stock as possible. The more offset you have, the more likely it is to smash your tires into your fenders/flares at full suspension compression. Stock wheels are +34 offset, 8.5" wide. So if you bolted on a 10" wheel with the same +34 offset, the inner wheel lip would be 3/4" closer the a-arm, half of the additional 1.5" barrel width. You normally can't push the barrel of the wheel inwards any further without clearance issues with the suspension, so you have to reduce the offset by 19mm (3/4") to keep the inner wheel lip at the same location. You can easily figure each width one once you know how it's done. An 11" wheel with a +2 offset would match the stock offset. A 10" wheel with a +15 offset would match the stock offset. A 9" wheel with a +28 offset would match the stock offset. The wheel you listed is a 10" with a -18 offset. Since a "stock" 10-in offset would be +15, it would stick out 33 mm (1.3") further than is strictly necessary for clearance. [/QUOTE]
