truck is dark blue; If I go with the XDs they come in two offsets that work. I could get+18 which will stick out about 1.5" outside the fender or +30 which will stick out a little less than an inch. I don't plan on running flares so what offset do you think will look better
A 10” wide rim with a 4.5 back-space will give you the extreme “TONKA” truck look.
A 8”to 9” wide rim with a 6” back-space will give you the stock appearance with fat tires, 13” wide instead of 11” wide.
So “inis” or “outis”?
With the “inis” and using the above size as a referece (8” rim 13”wide with Toyos MTs). With some distance, looking at the back of your truck, add an inch to each side of the tires and check (looks muscular but with a narrow bottom, narrow bottom caused by the wheel not by the tire)
The “outis”, explained by the Tonka look.
My preferred look is the 9” wide wheel with the 5.5” to 5.75” back-space as you get to show your fatter tires and it is not so out that you need fender flares (unless you like them), plus not much rock flying at the rocker panels.
Check the thread below, photos of a DARK BLUE MEGA on 33”. Get that one on 35’s and it is perfect. (page 5)
