Wheel Offset?

[AR34]

What wheel offset do you think this is? Like the look. Was in a different forum. Just said 20” XDs with 35” pro comps.

Pretty hard to tell by the eyeball test. If you can get the XD model name, Tire Rack lists the offset with each style.

If you can’t get the model, maybe just do a search on TR using the vehicle and the brand filter for XD wheels only and see if you can pick out the wheel style, the offset will be listed with that wheel’s specs.

Thanks I’ll give that a try. It’s just the amount of poke I’d like on mine I think.

Understand. I think stock wheels have a negative offset, can’t remember the amount, but should be pretty easy to google.

Looks about the same stance as my truck (maybe that one you posted is even more aggressive). Here’s what I’m running just to give you an idea:

17x8.5” 24mm offset
+
2” wheel spacers
= about -26mm offset.

Kinda hard to tell in this picture but it’s the only one I have. They are plus 35 so they have a substantial lip. They protrude about half as much as Jason’s. They’re 22x9.5 U2 55’s with no spacer.

So if my math is right, you have a 4" wider track than stock, is that right?

BTW, I like it.

Thanks!

Looks like the stock front track is 68.2”. I’ll have to get the measuring tape out a little later as my math skills are eluding me right now.

I appreciate it.

I am looking at some AM wheels, 17" versus the 20" I have now, so I can air down a little when things get tight. The candidate wheels are zero offset, which I think will add 2" in track total (1" on both sides), which I can tolerate. In the winter, I am in a lot of muddy tracks, so too much track and I have a rolling mud pie within a short time.

Ok...measured it up from inside tire tread to outside tire tread for the front track width:

right at 72”

3.8” wider than stock.

So your math is way better than mine.

Tires are 265/70

Thanks bud, I appreciate it.

I was out measuring how much I have to work with (while trying to watch the barn burner between Bama and UCLA), looks like I only have about an additional inch of track if I want to keep the edges inside the fenders (and keep the mud slinging to a minimum).

My current stock tires are 275/55-20. I probably will go with 275/70-17’s on 17” wheels with like +25 offset wheels, so essentially keep the track stock.

I won’t gain much in ground clearance, maybe 1/4” and will probably rub a little at max lock (my current stock setup used to rub at max lock until they had done their magic on the plastic fender liners).

I might experiment with some thin spacers to get the track out to the limit of the fenders.

Thanks again, I needed a little motivation to get me off the dime.

Appreciate the responses. I keep going back and forth between 20x9 with +20 or 20x10 with -18. Really don’t like a ton of poke but I will have fender flares if I can ever hunt some down. Think a 35” tire will rub with +20 with a 6” lift?
