0 offset vs -12 offset

the 18's would be stock TB rims. Or size down to 17x9 -12mm offset Vision rims.

being an 11.5 width tire, you will be very close to the upper arm ball joint housing. the -12 will help move that out from that point, and should JUST clear the fenders and liners once pulled back. i have an 11.50 on a zero, 9 wide and it wants to touch the liners if left alone. i also run a RL upper arm right now, moving to another brand real soon...just to match the lowers

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.

That is one sweet ride and love the color...red/black is badass! My rig is black/red. Love that scheme too, which is why I picked it.

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.

If you look at my signature. This is my setup. Currently, I am not rubbing with the tires, wheels, lift, wheel spacer size, and FOX 2.5 DSC front coil-over and rear shocks. I do not run 12.5" width because with my setup, I believe I would rub. So, I am running 305/70 18 which have a width of 12.0" and no rubbing.
