after market rim questions

[LoudnLifted88]

i wanna buy some aftermarket rims for my truck looking at some 16x 8 procomps the one that look like mt classic II's ad i just need some info on back spacing and such i run nbs wheels on my truck ad wouldnt mind if they stuck out just a lil more than that but not enough that i will need flairs to cover them so what whould i need for a rim to achive this thank you in advance

Mine have a -12 mm offset and they stuck out some. The tire sticks out a lot but the wheel isnt bad. With a tire that isn't 13.5" wide like mine it should tuck almost all the way up.

ok so something arounf a -12mm is what i should look for? i plan on running like a 285 or a 305 16 inch rim and i also plan on getting a 4 inch rcx for it at somepoint

Yeah. Generally that's all they sell in the 6x6.5 that I've seen. Either -12 mm or +12 mm which iirc will tuck in some more than factory and have rubbin issues. I'll say I've run -12 mm on my cepeks and my jesters and they're fine. I think to be a perfect match, it'd be like a -8 mm but I could be wrong. A -12 mm will be fine. Someone else might be able to explain more than I can though.

a set of 16x8's look great for a stock, or small lifted truck. They stick out just enough to not need flares.

I have a set of 16x8's on mine with zero offset. which is 4"backspacing.


This was before the lift kit..
