18" wheel offset

Whats up guys im new to the site and I have an 87 B2200 thats bodied 2 3/4", was wondering what offset I would need for 18x8 wheels with factory 6 lug and would i need to flip balljoints?  Any help would be great!

your going to need right around a +40mm or greater. the navigator 18's are plus 44mm and they tuck easy. You will only need to flip your balljoints if you dont have drop spindles. there than that you will prolly rub the clutch master cylinder also. My mazda is bodied 2 1/4 and with the navi wheels it almost rubs the clutch master. hope that helps.

so the navigator 18's with 40 series tire will truck with 2wd bedsides on a bodydrop?? im getting them pretty soon just wanna make sure theyl tuck befor i get them... im bodydroped just a little under 4 inches so i think ima have to do something with my master cylinder but i dont think ima have to do the ball joints cause my trucks frame is about an inch off the ground.....what you think?

anyone else got anything on this. im in same boat. ready to get rims and thinking 18s but having hell of a time finding something.

I couldnt find anything I liked that fit under my 2wd sheetmetal. So I broke down and ordered 18x7" Bonspeed Lagunas. They were custom made with a +45mm offset. So they should tuck just fine. Im also running 215/35R18 toyos.
