New Wheel Question

Hey guys, I was hoping someone could answer this for me. I'm looking to purchase new wheels and are favoring the XD 799(armours) the offest on these is -12 with a back spacing of 4.5". How far are these going to stick out the fenders? Also, what would the KMC 673(skitch) +35 offset and 6.1" backspace look like? Thanks

The +35 will be real similar to stock if they are nine inches wide. The -12 will stick out roughly 2.5 to 3 inches further than stock. Do u want a wider stance or tucked in under the fenders?

The 799 are 20x9 and the 673 are 20x8.5 I really don't want the tires slinging anything down the side of my truck.

Go with positive offset. +12 if u want a little wider than stock, +30 or so if u want close to stock.

A 9 inch wide wheel with 4.5 inches of BS will stick out 2.5 inches farther than your OEM wheels while an 8.5 inch wheel with 6.1 inches of BS will stick out about a half inch farther than stock wheels.
