I picked up a set of 18x10's with a -12mm offset for pretty cheap. Does anyone have any pics of -12's, I'm curious to know how much they will stick out. These will e going on an 05 cc, leveled at the most. Hoping for 33" tires.

20x9's, -12mm But if i'm not mistaken, since you have 10" rims, they will stick out a 1/2" further than this...

Offset is just the distance from OEM center of hub to wheel. Hence when you go from stock (6.5") to a big 10" wide rim, you need to push it out or it wont even slide on the studs.

Positive numbers suck the wheel center in (by pushing the hub out).

Negative numbers push the wheel center out (by pulling the hub more to the 'inside' of the wheel aka lip or dish on the rim.) This is why -44 or farther negative rims have HUGE lips on them, because the hub is almost on the inside lip of the rim.

I currently have 265/75/16's on but want a little more tire under the truck. I'm looking at some 305/60/18 Nitto T/G's and want to put them on a new set of Moto-Metal M0959 Matte Black 18X9''/8X6.5 wheels. What off set should I make sure to get for this setup. I just cranked the keys and will not mined trimming a little if needed.

I've always bought -12. I'm sure there's numerous options though

It looks like I will need to change wheels to the MO957 in order to get a -12mm offset. Or I guess I will look at more options.
Thanks for the info.
