offset

ok i have seen several answers to this question but all seem different im wanting to know what the minimum positive offset wheel will tuck with 2wd fenders and an 18" wheel with a 35 series tire i will also be fliping the ball joints i have seen the panther juice on mazdas but it is advertised as only having 10mm of positive off set im new to this truck i have only ever delt with toyotas but truly want to keep six lug so no need to explain swaping to 5 lug thanks for all the info

apparently no one knows the mystery of the the 6 lug wheel

everyone knows the mystery, they just don't want you to know.

I believe that its around 30 or so, mine are an 18x7.5 with a 40 series and they are a 45 offset. I know it was mentioned before but the search hasn't worked for a while.

7 inch wide needs about +32, 7.5 about +39, 8 about +46, 8.5 about +54.

this is correct. Offset numbers mean nothing unless you give a width. By example, a +32 7 inch wide wheel will tuck, a +32 8 inch wide wheel will not. Have to know width for offset to means anything.

Also, those numbers are good if you arent running drop spindles in the front, if you use a drop spindle, you will need almost 1/2 inch more offset (9-12mm) for each width.
