Question Need some help with this offset.

I can get a good deal on a set of wheels but my question is:

Will this offset work on all four corners?

18x9 with a 5.95" backspace (+24mm offset).

And if they do fit, any suggestions on tire size? Maybe 255x35 or 275x35???

thanks

I would think that they will rub bad...they will stick out almost an inch further than my 9.5's on the back...and that will be a no go. They also will probably rub on the front as well. All in all...I would look for something different that will fit better

agree with dannobre. the offset is too low for front and rear. you will rub insanely bad.

I think you should look into going with a 40-45 offset and I would go with 275/35...it looks hella good that way.

it's hard to gage the min/max offset. I wish we had a real gage of what is the realistic min/max is for offset.

thanks guys, I appreciate it.

the search continues on.......

if you roll the fender and have about 1.75-2 negative camber and stretch you tires, i think it should be ok!
