I am thinking about replacing my 22's on my Escalade and was wondering what offset to go with on a 22.9.5? Crazy thing is CARiD has options from +25-31mm offsets with "guaranteed fit". Seems kinda confusing to me.

Just to give you an idea...I put 22x9.5” +15mm offset on my wife’s ‘15 Yukon and it’s looking flush with the fenders (I actually haven’t put a level to it yet to confirm).

Depends on the look you want. I have the same size as Jason but a
minus 25. I like the wheel to have some lip on it. The from sits about an inch outside the fender.

See that’s the thing, he’s saying his is flush at a +15 and you say yours poke an inch at +25, but that shouldn’t be the case, Bc the larger the + number the more recessed it will be.

I would like it to be flat or slightly recessed from the top of the fender

@Big Mama has -25mm (not +25mm), so hers will stick further out of the fender than my +15.

From what you said that you want it “flat or slightly recessed from the fender” I would stick with +15mm (nothing more negative than that) if you’re going with a 9.5” wheel.

22x9 24+
With 285/45 tire

The 31 will sit just about the same. 24mm is one inch, so adding a half inch to width but splitting it 6-7mm to the inside

22x9.5. 31+
With a 305 /45 tire
Have a side pic? I like the fitment as far as flushness but I’m curious if I want to go bigger than 22. My previous Escalade had 24’s esky reps on 305/35/24 tires and I loved the look, but it’s nice to be able to just pull up to a NTB and buy a tire if you blow out a tire. (Happened to me once and was super glad I was able to get 4 new tires the same day)

the factory 22’s look ok. But was thinking about going with a set of dub push s109’s or lexani wraith but they aren’t in stock in the size I want
