Too much offset?

[Clancaster23]

Looking to swap out the stock wheels on my Willys Sport for a set of 20" wheels with 35" tires. Specs are below of the wheels. Mainly wondering if the -25 offset is ok. I will have a leveling kit installed by the time I get them so fitting the 35s is not a concern. I like the wider stance but want to be sure they won't rub anything or have any problems.


Backspacing: 4.5
Bolt Pattern: 5x5
Offset: -25mm
Wheel Diameter: 20
Wheel Width: 10
Hub Bore: 78.10
Load Rating: 2500

Your stock wheel specs is 17x7.5 +45
New wheel is 20x10 -25

With the same offset, the wheel will poke out & inward 1.25"

-25 offset will move the wheel 2.75" outward from stock + 1.25" wheel width= 4" total poke and 1.50" less inward from stock wheels.

Clearance wise, it's good but the poke is quite excessive. May endurance harsh ride.

I think that's a bit much. I'm thinking I might want to stay somewhere around 0 offset. I'd like about 1.5" to 2" beyond the fenders.

What was posted above means they will stick out past the fenders 4" correct? Or is it 1.5? Not sure I'm reading it right.

Yes - this calculator shows 3.96”.

Here is the link that will show you the difference visually.

You will have a lot of tire poke.

That's a stupid amount of unnecessary offset.

If you want to take out windshields and rock chip the side of your rig it will be a good fit. To each his own. But I am kind of tired of have rock chips and broken windshields on my rigs. Not to mention tthe safety of pedestrians. . Many folks run there trucks like that here in Tucson. Zero enforcement here even with laws on the books.
So think about wheel and tire choice with a sense of consideration for others.

I have that much

I went with a +10 wheel. Thanks for the advice all.

Also get some hub centric rings or you might find your wheel on the side of the road.

Custom offsets says i don't need rings since the wheels I'm getting are lug centric.

alot of offset will trash your ball joints fast, i went with aev borah wheels, offset is well thought out close to stock and with 37s and 32k miles im still factory on ball joints with a ton of off road miles??

+10 is what I went with and I think it is perfect.

What size tires on that?
