-19 or 0??? Which offset to get?

[jnewkirk77]

I'm shopping for a new set of wheels for my '96, and have pretty well decided I'm going with Vision 141 Legend 5's, but I'm having trouble figuring out which offset to get.

Is the -19 better, with its 4 1/2" backspacing, or should I go 0 offset, with 3 3/4"? Whichever I go with, I plan to run 255/70R15 tires (probably Cooper Cobras). I'm thinking the 4 1/2" backspacing is going to put me too close to the suspension. But I could be wrong.

Thoughts?

BTW, I started an album of the truck. https://www.gmt400.com/media/albums/jnewkirk77s-96-cheyenne.1262/

Why dont you take a wheel off and get your tape measure out and see how close it will be.?



95 rcsb, L33 5.3, hot cam, frost tune, 5spd, 4/6

I can do that (and will!), but I was hoping someone had done this before and could advise.
