How far will they stick out

Going to get a set of used motometal 951's with 35's.
The guy selling doesn't know the BS or offset.

I checked with motometal and they have: 18x9 in
-12mm with 4.5BS
+18mm with 5.71BS
+30mm 6.18

what is the difference or how much will each of these stick out from Stock rims.

also, is there anyway to tell from a picture what the offset/BS might be from looking at the lip?

I'm going to put Extender-flares on, just don't want to go past those too much.

And which one would not work with 2inch level kit.
I have 6inch lift, but not put on yet. And would like the option to go back to level kit if I don't like the 6inch.

where is an offset sticky..

Ok, I just got the guy to measure.
The offset is 4.5

So, next question. will these even work with 35's and levelkit?
I don't mind trimming, but I don't wont them to hit the fenderwell.

No, they will not fit without the lift kit.

back spacing is how much rim there is from the face of the hub on the wheel to the inside lip

offset is how much further in or out (+ or -) the hub is compared to a stock wheel.

So a +mm offset will stick out past a stock wheel unless there is a ton of backspacing

ALso, a 9 inch wide wheel with 4.5 inches of bs will stick out 2.5 inches farther than the OEM wheels.

thanks guys,

What would be the best offset/backspace to get with a set of 35's and level kit that would still fit minor trimming and give a wider stance.

To fit a 35x12.50 with only a leveling kit, you need to use the OEM wheels or an 8 inch wide wheel with 5.5 inches of backspacing.
