New to forum, need wheel advice

[BC Dan]

Hi all, just signed up to the forum. Can someone point me in the right direction to get some wheel advice? I just added a 3" lift and need to know the correct rims to buy to upsize my wheels.

Thanks

Seems like everyone recommends a 0 or -6 offset...I went with a +15.... I like the way it sits

What size tires do you have?

Welcome to the forum. What size wheel do you want? 16”, 17”? What kind of stance do you want? Narrow? Wide?

Thanks all. I have the tires 285/70/17

Right now I still have the stock 265s on the truck, and I've noticed that the upper A arm of awfully close to the tire. I don't mine the look of tires extruding from the truck a bit, but I don't want to go extreme. I'd like an 8.5" or 9" rim but I'm kind of confused about the offset that I need.

This is a 2011 4x4, 4 door by the way.

Get 17x8.5” 0 offset and mount the 285/70/17. You’ll be happy.

Thanks.
I'm still trying to figure out this forum. Is there a place where people have posted pictures so that I can see examples?

Search for what you’re looking for (example lift kits, etc.) in the search bar. It’ll bring up posts and topics on anything you’re looking for.

Anyone who has a 2.5- 3” lift and 285/75/16 or 285/70/17’s it’s going to look the same. You won’t be able to tell the .5-1” difference. Basically going to look like this.

The truck looks great.

You should lift yours so it doesn’t look like a wiener dog.

No thank you. I’m partial to my Dachshund Taco.

I've run into a snag with supply on the rims I wanted. With my 3" lift can I fit 18x9" 285/65/18 tires?

Depends on the offset of them.

 

[BC Dan]

Of course. -12

 

[OR17TRD]

Of course. -12

You’ll have a little more rubbing with them that low but you’ll be able to trim or mold it. -6 offset or 0 works best with 8-9” wide wheels. -12 I’ve seen people get more rubbing.
