Question Rockstars and Toyo MT please help, what offset do i need? +10 or +35 on 20 x 8.5

Fellas, I am about to order 20 x 8.5 wheels with 35 12.50 Toyo MT, have a 2.5 daystar kit. Im not sure if I should go with +10mm or +35mm. I don't want the tires tucked too much, but I also don't want major rubbing issues. I know this has probably been covered a hundred times but I can't seem to find anything specific on these numbers. anyone, please help ready to order now!

You need to go with a 33 inch tire. To fit 35's you will need a 8 inch wide wheel with 5.5 inches of backspacing.

But the 8.5 with +35mm is just over 6 inches backspace. That won't work?

I think one member here may be running that combo, but I'm not sure how much rubbing he has or how much trimming he had to do.

so which way do you think will be worse? +10 would be almost an inch further out verses +35 and inch further in.

To fit 35's, you will have to have more backspacing. Personally, I think a set of 33's on a wheel with less backspacing will look better.
