Oh! Wasn't aware that you already knew the offset when you purchased them. Most people just look at bolt pattern and diameter.
Good on ya! for having the presence of mind to ask before buying!
Looking forward to some pictures of them mounted!
 
Couldn't help myself and put them on a side. They fit just like I wanted, just the right amount of "poke". I'll definitely need to do some fender/side step work after the lift.

Here is some full-lock pics for those wanting to know what 17x8.5 -12 offset with 285/70r17s look like with stock suspension. My lift cannot come fast enough!

Those look awesome!
Yep, a little nip here, a little tuck there and you'll be fine!
 
Lift came in this week! Everything looks great. I have the install and BMC scheduled for next Friday at YotaMafia. My youngest has a Soccer tournament out of town that weekend so I won't be able to get the wheels on until the following Monday.🙄

Patience, patience, patience, patience...
 
I ordered my lift 26FEB. I inquired about its status a couple weeks ago, and the they told me Mid-Late May. I then inquired about the 25% discount they are now offering on all their suspensions, and my suspension was ready and shipped in 3 days.

Dang, my patience will be running low haha I ordered mine when the 25% started so I have some time until it gets here - guessing mid July. Look forward to seeing yours installed!

Please refer to post number 28 above...
 
Sorry for the delay on an update. With my son graduating, family in town, and prepping for a PCS, I haven't had much time.. I got the lift installed about a month ago now, and am really happy with it. I did get tired of waiting and took it upon myself to install myself. I got as far as 2hrs to take the driver's front apart, to then sit back a say "F@ck this", and put it back together to have YotaMafia install it! They did a great job, and am happy with the results. It is a tad bit firmer, but like everyone say it is a better ride than stock. I don't have any nose-dive when braking anymore. I also upgraded the brakes to R1 Concepts slotted/drilled rotors with PowerStop Extreme pads. This was also a significant upgrade over stock, as I no longer have as much brake creep. Before it felt like I need too much pedal pressure to stay stopped at traffic lights.

I'm still waiting on my Tire Carrier from Detours of Maine. We are hoping to get it in the next 5 weeks before I PCS, otherwise I'll need to get creative with my spare.

Looking great!

What did you get stuck with while doing the lift install? I’m tackling it this week myself and any pointers will help.
 
That's looking really sharp!
 
I didn't get stuck, I just lost ambition. I guess my age is catching up with me😄. I literally removed the shock and went to put the new coilover in and came to the conclusion I needed to separate the tierod to get the new girthier shock in there. While hot and sweaty (NW Florida), I looked at the other three wheels that still needed to be done and was like NOPE! I'll pay someone to do this for me! I put it all back together and waited 2 weeks for the install. It was just a miserable day.
