17" wheels with 0mm offset + 285/70R17 - terrible idea? (8 Viewers)

I am planning for -14 mm off set with 275/65R17 ........

Any of you went this far to go with the negative offset?

Rubbing is my main concern as I want to keep the original hydraulic setup. Plus I want to keep my foot boards for my mother to climb and sit in the car.
 
Digging thread up, im in the process of picking out the next wheels/tires. I'd like to stay with 17s so i can run 285/70/17 C rated tires.

People with 0 offset wheels, can you stuff them while offroading? Im getting mixed answers, some say the fenders will get ripped up, some say it clears fine. Im not concerned about plastic liner rubbing but concern about damaging the metal fenders. I like that aggressive poke look

I’ve never damaged my fenders, although I have felt the plastic liner rub a few times. For reference, I always wheel with my AHC in High.

The rear fenders aren’t a concern.

This is what the front looks like with all the AHC fluid drained… I wouldn’t drive it around like this, this is the only scenario where I’d worry about damaging my fender atm.

Man that look so good! but im afraid if i fully flex and stuff the front it'd hit that fender. Looks like i might have to find something i like in a 25 offset.

I really love these Methods 305 too, but they only come in a 0 offset in 17s
