Me personally... The 9" wide ones. I'm not a fan of the wide stretched out Mexican look. Here's a set of 18x9's on a 95 w/ 4"lift and SD axles. Mind you the tires are only 33's cause its getting lowered to stock height. With a plumbob, the outside of the tread is perfectly below the lip of the wheel well.

Wat offset? I'd like mine to stick out just a bit farther.

12's fo sho!

 

[97stoker350]

Yea that's wat I'm thinkin but I don't want to spend 12 hundred dollars on wheels and not like them

These are a -12 offset. If you want them wider, go with a 10" wide, -24 offset.

Those obs with 12 wides are totally nuts!! Loooove it.

20x12 ftw!

 

[97stoker350]

Yea I deffinetly think I'm getting 18x12 with 35s because I like the look of the 37s and 20s

To each there own. Too Mexican for my taste.

Maybe its because where I grew up, the only ones that had the super retarded wide wheels that stuck way out were the Mexicans. IMHO, wheels should accentuate the overall truck, not stick out like a sore thumb. But I differ greatly on what I think looks good compared to a majority of members on the forum. So take it for what its worth.

I don't want them to stick wayy out if they had an 18x12 with -24 offset that's wat I'd get but they don't have that

 

[97stoker350]

Wen looking at mine today they are pretty much the same wen it comes to how far they stick out. But I have 10 wides and I like the look of the sidwall being even with the outside of the wheel

I agree. It screams I'm a flat biller. Go with 9"
