ok, i already have 5 brand new 285/75/16 tires. i am looking to order a set of black steel rock crawlers. after some searching in this site i found that the cheapest place to get them is at Summit Racing. Unfortunately, in 16x8, Summit only has them with an offset of 5" and Ive read that 4.25" is the best. will a 5" offset work? or will there be rubbing? will it still look really good and have a decent, wide stance?

if this wont work then ill have to get them at 4wheel parts for almost $200 more <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I am doing the exact same thing--I hope.. I have the 285/75/16's now --BFG All Terrain's--which are about 33x11.50 x 16.
I ordered the rims 16 x 8 with 5" offset 6 x 5.5 bolt pattern.I hope the 5" offset is okay because like you the price was realy good.I'll know in a few days..... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

hmmm...i might have to wait to hear how your set-up works out. please let us know asap <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> and good luck!

Did the wheel install today..NO LIFT yet..I'm sure they will rub when I go wheelin', but on the streets they are okay..I've got the lift stuff ordered just not here yet..here is a link to some pics.
