[QUOTE="Elizabeth, post: 791055, member: 16615"] Hi, I'm new here. I've read everything I can find on wheel offset and I understand it for the most part, but I still have some questions. I put my stock rims on some new winter tires, so I'm looking for new wheels to put on the stock tires for summer. I really like the RBP 85R Voltage wheels but the highest offset they come in is +10. The people at RBP and some other folks I've talked to say this will be OK. But I'm sure the factory +34 offset is there for a reason. I don't want to wear out components earlier than usual or have any other issues just because I like these wheels. I understand that the backspacing would change to about 5.39" and the tires would stick out about .9" more. I'm also confused because I went to one of the online places, either Tire Rack or Car id, I can't remember, and looked at wheels that supposedly fit my vehicle. However, some of them have notes that say that this wheel is a aggressive fit that requires lift or fender modifications. A lot of these wheels are positive offset and I can't figure out why some that seem to have the same specs (size, offset, backspacing) as others require this. This site doesn't have RBP wheels so I can't tell if those fall into that category. Anybody have any input? I don't want to modify my truck, and don't want to negatively affect handling or wear, so if this offset is a bad idea I will go more towards stock. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
