17x9 -12 rims on wide track axles

[King Nothing]

I’m looking at a couple sets of wheels that are only available in a -12 offset. I’m afraid that those will stick too far out of the fenders with 35-11.50 tires. I prefer to keep my tires tucked completely under the flares if I can

edit: I found out that one of the wheels is also available in 0 and +18 offsets but for some reason they don’t list it as compatible with the Gladiator. If the bolt patterns match is there another reason they wouldn’t be compatible?

Not sure why. I run a fuel wheel that I've seen listed as either 0 or +1 depending on the web site (I think the actual is between the two). I run it on a 38x13.5x17 tire with a 4.5" lift. Most people told me it wouldn't fit. When I reached out to Evo they assured me it would on a Rubicon and it did. There are differences with the wide track/larger fenders. It's possible it won't fit on a non max tow sport so they just list them as not fitting a Gladiator.

They will poke with -12mm on 17x9

The -12 is not for me. Luckily I found the wheels I’m looking at in 0 and +18

I am guessing you are looking at one of the KMC offroad tech wheels. I have a set in +18 and another member I have spoken with has the +0 if you want to see any pics of poke.

Yeah, I’m looking at Dirty Harrys. I’d love to see those pics.

Hmm, I don’t have great pics of his showing poke, but his specs are 17x9 +0 on 37x12.5r17:

Mine are 17x9 +18 on 35x12.5r17 (Both are KM100 Sync)

Mine have some poke in front and hardly any in the rear. But, also a 12.5 inch wide tire compared to the 11.5 you will run. The +0 will poke ~3/4 of an inch more.
