This video should be at every tire and wheel shop in the country. Great explanation of what offset is. Awesome job

FYI, wheel width comes into play here as well as two wheels with the same offset yet one is wider than the other; the wider wheel will poke out more. Case in point is the first wheel was an 8.5" and the second was a 9". The wheel at the same offset would poke an extra 1/4" (or ~6mm) more. So going to a +12 in the 9" wide wheel from a +44 8.5" wheel has about the same poke as an 8.5" would at +6 offset.

This is why these 20x12 -44 wheels poke out so much; it's not just the negative offset, it's the huge width change too.

This is the best explanation of this topic I've seen. Graphics of the differences help tremendously. Thank you!

I find it fascinating the further from rural places and closer to suburbs and cities I get
the more off road looking vehicles there are

My own personal preference as far as how far tires should stick out: 1” or less past the fenders if there are no flares. If there are fender flares it should also be an 1” or less past the edge of the flares. But hey that’s just me of course :)

..finally, a GREAT VIDEO.. PICTURES TELL THE STORY..

[GymJockey]

awesome video. I always wondered what that off-set talk was all about.

[Reverberocket]

I did not expect such a well-produced, informative video when I landed here. Well done!!!

[thisistheslam]

Man, I feel smarter about tires. This was a great tutorial on what I’m looking at when considering new wheels and tires. Great video!!

[D_Town_Throwdown]

Great visual with the rubbing in the wheel well. I was having a hell of a time understanding why a positive offset would make it rub. It’s not the side of the wheel well closest to the engine you have to worry about, it’s the inside of the fender directly in front and back of the wheel!

Hands down the best video about offset meaning. Made shopping for wheels much much easier. Thanks guys!

[chrisboyd]

I just learned alot in a short amount of time. Great presentation.

[samlemma]

Man it took me so long to understand wheel offset until I stumbled on this video. Wow - amazing! thank you!

[aquaman]

I swore I wasn’t going to level my truck or put wheels on it. Videos like this make that promise hard to keep.

[alankowalski]

The best video i have ever seen explaing this

[aaronhankins]

I love these videos, especially the ones with Justin. I am a new truck owner, someone who doesn't need to own a truck but wanted one so I am completely lost when it comes to most things trucks and every video I've seen with Justin is super clear and not too long-winded. I already bought running boards and an antenna from you guys and looking at new rims and decals next.

I was pulling my hair trying to decide what offst to get. Glad i watched this video. I now know 0 offset is still offset from the stock wheels im replacing. I love the look of big neg offsets but living on a dirt road i will stick with tiny bit of offset

[WhatDayIsItTrumpDay]

Great job and video. Thanks for clearing that up. Always wondered which offset to get and what was stock. In my case the +12 would be preferable.

[davidfitzgerald]

Just spent almost $1900 on the website today😅😅 got 18x9 with -12 offset for my new wheels. New exhaust, headlights, and intake. I’m excited. Plus I’m installing my leveling kit for my new wheels next week

That's so awesome u came out with this video. Just so happens I'm waiting for the last parts of my lift to be delivered today. Have my tire/wheels sitting in the garage with a -24 wrapped in a 35"x12.50. perfect timing thanks
