Re: Looking for new wheels..Offset????

not sure about the step side part, but I will tell ya what I have on my SWB. 275/55/r17 on the back and 255/50/r17 on the front. These are on 17x8 torq thrusts with 4 inch backspacing. My truck is bagged front and rear with a c notch in the back and bags with upper plates and cups in the front with drop spindles. No clearence issues here

I run the same as III sahara on a fleetside except with 17x8 centerlines with 4 1/2" backspacing. When I put in the 4" drop springs on the rear (which turned out to be closer to 5" drop), I had to get 1" spacers to clear the fender well on the inside.
