I've posted a couple threads here lately and done hours of seaqrching and looking at pictures, and I've finally decided on the new wheel and tire combo I'm going to get.

It will be an 18x9 Helo Maxx 6 with 4.5" backspacing and a -12mm offset. Tires will be 285/65/18 BFG All-Terrains.

The real issue I had deciding was wheel width and how far they would 'stick out.' I have my heart set on the Helo's, but unfortunately they don't make an 18x9.5 or 18x10 with 4.5" backspacing. I'd like the wheel tire combo to stick out about 1/2" farther than it is going to, but not at the expense of using a smaller diamter wheel(16x10 Helo).

From all the searching I've done. The combo I'm going with will put the bulge of the tire sidewall flush with the outer lip of the OE Lariat fender flare.

Here are a few pictures of the wheels. One is a side shot showing how far the Helo's will stick out, the second picture should be a side shot. Both trucks are using 17's, the gold truck has 275/70s and the red truck is running 285/70s, so mine will be 10mm wider than the gold truck, and maybe stick out just a hair more. I'll also have an inch more chrome and an inch less rubber, but the overall diameter will be the same

What do you think? Do they tuck in too far or look OK?

 

They look good.

 

 

I am looking at the same combo. I think they look great.
