Zero offset

[Fg8or]

Thinking very seriously about this wheel for the 07 suburban. 18”x9 with a zero offset. My local dealers say they are nationally back ordered however I can find them online. My question is will they work with my Toyo 285/65 r18s I already have? I have the OEM 18s with +31 offset now and a 2” supreme suspension level kit up front 2.5 with 5100s on rear. Another local dealer I checked with today said zero offset will not work because it may rub ball joints. I’m confused to say the least. .

Second dealer is clueless.... a zero offset would make the wheel stick out further which would actually give more ball joint clearance.

With that being said.... that DOES NOT necessarily mean that these wheels will fit your truck as they may stick out so far that they would rub your fender when turning. Further research is required.

Just keep in mind...

Positive offset = face wheels

Negative offset = deep dish

This is not set in stone but a good rule of thumb.

Well they fit. Just got a slight rub I have to figure out what to do.

have you already added a 2' lift? if not the kit runs about $50-60, there's some work involved for install, that might be just enough.

Looks great!

Trim the plastic bumper support bracket, then use zip ties to pull the fender liner back for more clearance. I also hit my liner with a heat gun so it retains the "new" shape naturally for less pull on the zip ties.
