I know this subject is beat to death, but trying to figure out wheel width and offset/bs to fit my needs/wants.

I was looking at a 17x9 in the 0 offset as well as the +18mm offset.

I would prefer the OEM/AEV tucked flush look.

Currently have the Mopar Lift, 1” spacer with a mod width LOD bumper and 35s on a Rubicon, with plans to go with 37s in the future.

I only make it to Northern NM/Co 1-2 times a year and not a rock crawler. Would the 17x9 +18 (5.71 BS) create or cause any rubbing or worries. I think the 0 offset would be more poke than I’d like.

Thanks

This should help in terms of figuring out how much poke and/or difference over stock:

I went with 17x9 Method 703 wheels. They have +25 mm offset and it looks tucked.

Thank you, I was also looking at that option. My worry was with 9” vs an 8.5” if the .25 per side would create issues. Sounds like I should be good.

I put 37” Ko2’s on. I don’t have the lift yet. Hardly any poke.

I made a mistake. I looked at the box and my wheels are Method 703 17x8.5” +25

No worries, this was my 2nd option so if my plan changes I will end up with these. Thanks for the pics.
