Loved your diagram and explanation. I'm 57 years old and have always struggled with whole offset thing. But after listening to you, it all clicked. I can now just picture your diagram in my head and I see it. I love Cateye Chevy Siverado's. I have a 2006 with 6" lift and 37" tires. My goal is to fit 44" tires under it. Don't know yet what type of lift will be the best.
Hilarious!!! I have a 2011 Ranger Sport 2WD. I want a slight negative offset (nothing huge) just a noticeable effect. Any recomendations for the wheel and tire set up?
Hey!! Thanks buddy! Anything from like 0 to -22 offset will give you some poke, the more negative, the more it will poke. If its a stock height 2wd, id run like 30-31 inch tires. Might have to trim the bumper a little for 31s. Thanks for watching.
@@DoinitwithDoug hey that's for the quick reply!! I've seen a number of your videos and love the ones in the snow!! I'm in Montreal so I appreciate the snow belt thing. What brand name of rims and tires are you running? Do you recommend them?
Great info. . . But how do I determine what offset or back spacing specs to go with? Do manufacturers provide the optimum sizes such as for their Jeeps and SUVs?
Its different for every vehicle because of how low or how high they sit from factory, or the wheel well size. For example chevy trucks have a square wheel well, and fords have a round one. The round wheel well will be able to fit a bigger tire and more offset. It also depends on the look that you want. My suggestion would be to use the website Custom Offsets. They have a gallery tool that allows you to search your vehicle and see what different wheels and offsets look like on your specific vehicle. The manufacture wont really recommend different sizes than the factory size for liability reasons. Good luck. Thanks for watching.
