Wheel size/offset question

[hoosiers16]

I'm wanting to get 37x12.5 or 13.5 tires, as for wheels I'm thinking 20x10's with either a -12 or -24 offset.. Does anybody have a setup like one of these combinations with or without a fender flare?

you'll need 6" of lift minimum.

Here's my previous setup with 6 inch lift, 37x13.5x20 tires, and 20x10 wheels...

Do you remember what offset those wheels were by any chance?

Yep. Those are -25 offset. The bigger the offset, the better in my opinion...

20x10 -24 are perfect in my opinion

You won't be able to fit more than -24 offset on 6 inches of lift without substantial rub.

true story there.... went from 20x10 with 37x13.50 on an 8" to 22x14 with 35.12.50 and 1" spacers and I'm damn near rubbing.... offset is king!

Saw a 13 kr short bed on a icon 3.5" ala's and 6" ouo traction blocks stock 20s 37x13.50 toyo mt. If you put a 4.5" compared to the 6" set up based on the bs and offset.

so if I were to have a 6" lift and put on 37x13.5 tires with 20x10 -12mm offset they would rub? Sorry I'm new to this and the numbers don't make much sense to me.. if so then what about 12.5w tires?

You wouldn't rub on the wheel well or bumper like you would with -44. I meant "more" as in more negative of an offset, such as -44 or -76. I know people can rub on the inner workings without enough negative offset, but I think the setup you described should be fine. I would go with the -24 offset though for a better looking stance...
