offset question...new rims

I'm getting ready to order some new rims, KMC XD 795 hoss rims. My question is what bolt pattern do i have, 8/6.5? Also I will be taking my leveling kit of and droping the rear an inch. I plan on running some 32 inch by 12 inch Nitto 420S street tires. Also another big question what offset would be good for my truck?

These trucks have an 8x6.5 bolt pattern. A general rule of thumb is to keep the wheel width less than 9" and get the highest (+) offset available. You want around 6" of backspacing unless the truck is being lifted (which it's not in your case).
