Need Help Picking out Tire Size

I am going to be getting some new rims on my truck and I like the look when they stick out really far from your wheel wells. I don't to buy rims and find out I didn't really get what I want when I put them on. What is the measurement called or how do I chose to get a wider rim? I could use some help! Thanks!

I'm not fully sure what you're asking, however if you want your tires to stick out I believe you want a nice wide rim (9" or so) with 305 or wider tires. Depends on if you've lifted your truck or not. If you are going to a spindle lift will push the front tires out about 1.5"

What you're looking for is a negative offset wheel or a low backspace. Be aware that you'll have to run a smaller tire the wider you go though. I'm running 33's on 20x12's with 8" of lift and they rub at full lock.
