So I’ve just ordered some KMC Wheels… 16x8 0mm Offset

And I’m about to order some 295/75/16s with the goal of getting my pinch welds and trim work done over the weekend of the install.

Just curious if anyone else is running this setup..

I am rooting towards the KMC impact wheels (16*8 with 0 offset) as the SCS f5 wheels are hard to get.
I have a ironman suspension lift of 2.5 inch. So just curious if i should stay with 33 or 35.

0 offset means you're reducing the max tire size you can run for any given level of modding by quite a bit. That's over 2 inches of extra poke and therefore extra radius in your turning circle. You'll hit the pinch weld hard.

You can check the fitment thread, but I think 0 offset means 35's are going to require a heavy hammer and an lot of sheet metal reworking.

Unless you really want that poke for looks, ET40-ET25 is more accommodating of a large tire.

ET25 has been perfect just a bit of poke and a little pinch weld banging

Thanks for the input everyone… I went with a set of Black Rhino Rapid’s in Matte Bronze; 17x8.5” 10mm Offset, wrapped in Maxxis Mudder 305/70/17 (33.8”) on stock height AHC.

There was some pretty bad rubbing, but most of it’s gone for street duty after pinch welds and smashing that plastic box under the front left well.

Going to get it on the fork lift tomorrow and see what it looks like!

Meh. You'll rub over a speed bump.

Looks pretty good to me. I am thinking of getting the Black Rhino Stadium, same size, 17x8.5, 10mm offset, but a slightly narrower tire, 285/75R17, Toyo Open Country A/T III. I'd honestly prefer a little bit less aggressive offset, but Black Rhino does not seems to offer any alternatives. Also don't see many alternatives if you want a [rotary] forged wheel at a reasonable price.

@jdmosley43 now that you've had these for a few weeks, any regrets?​
