Anyone here running a 17" or 18" wheel with a 0 offset on 35x12.5 tire? Any fitment issues or noticeable difference in driving offroad and on road? Do you like the ride quality? Currently I'm running an 18x9 -12 offset and I'm looking to change my setup.

do you have any rubbing issues running -12? i'm looking to switch factory +26 for zero or -12 with off road tires on 18" rims
 
take this for what you will...a true 35 on that setup will rub, most likely not a lot if you pull the fender liners back.
i run a 34.4" tire and 11.5 wide, on a 10" wheel with -18 offset. so, the wheel width is one factor, true tire size another...

if you look at a 10" wheel and true 35x12.5 tire, it will rub a decent amount...make certain you are asking for ALL the possible factors you can.

you have any added lift on your truck? (the stance on her is frickin' perfect, too!)

I do have some rubbing issues in reverse at full lock, or whenever my wheels go out of alignment off roading. Otherwise it drives like stock normally.

I got the wheel liner pinned back and I still have rubbing at full lock. But the tire size and wheel width are definitely things to consider. Do you think a 17x8.5 would make much of difference compared to a 9 wide?
 
I had a surprising amount of trouble finding current pics that do a decent job of showing the tire size and offset...but this is 315/70R17 Territory MTs on 17x8.5 0ET wheels and a 1" front level. The last pic is from the day I put the wheels/tires on so its old but it's the only one I have from that angle.

I took the muflap brackets out and re-mounted the mudflaps without them, and I have no rubbing anywhere. You should have no issues fitting true 12.5" width tires on 0 offset wheels - I have at least an inch of clearance on my setup even with aftermarket control arms.
