im having trouble deciding the proper offset for my rim choice i either want the moto metal 951 in black 18x9 with 6" backspacing or the kmc xd diesel in black 18x9 with 4.5" of back spacing the tires i want are 325/60 terra grapplers. I want the kmcs but dont want to rub and i know that the moto metal wont rub but it seems alot of people have them so my question is will 4.5" of back spacing rub. i have a 2.5" leveling btw

 

If you have a 4x4, you will have some rubbing with only 4.5 inches of backspacing. However, it's not something a little trimming won't cure. It just depends on how far you want your wheel/tire to stick out. A 9 inch wide wheel with 4.5 inches of backspacing is gonna stick out 2.5 inches farther than the OEM wheels while a 9 inch wheel with 6 inches of backspacing will only stick out an inch farther than the factory wheels.

 

thanks wandell i knew it would stick out further but not that far to much for me i wish the kmc came in a different offset
