Offset Dilemma

[Doge3317]

I went to the local tire shop and got quoted on Black Rhino Raids. It appears they are backordered on the 0mm offset but have the -18mm offset available. The shop indicated that this should be fine but I am worried about too much poke and whether this will work with my long term plan of a 2” - 2.5” spacer lift and 35x11.5” Toyos?

Does anyone have this or a similar set up that can speak to how much poke and have pics?

“Too much poke” likely won’t cause interference with your lift, too little can. However, “too much poke” can cause interference with your paint, create the physical appearance of not knowing how to properly lift a Jeep and and if you live in my town the potential for a “fix it” ticket.

if you are stuck on getting those wheels, I would wait until the configuration you want is available. I guess your choice is delaying the purchase for a few weeks and getting what you know will satisfy what you are trying to accomplish looks and function wise vs immediate gratification and long term second guessing.
