+18 offset

I am a wheel retard I suppose.... so a 22x9.5 wheel with a +18 offset will stick out or tuck?

I thought that negative offset stuck out?

I had the same problem as far as those numbers go. I called KMC if I understood correct the larger the plus number the more it would set in. For a 2008 he told me anything from +12 to +40 would work. Does anyone happen to know what the stock rim is?

Negative offsets move the wheel out, positive offsets move the wheel in. I don't know what stock offset is on an '08, but I think +18 is close or might be moved out just slightly.

That is interesting, the guy at KMC told me to stay away from negatve on my truck. I wonder why? How far did they stick out? And yes I am a wheel moron too.

On '05 and later trucks, negative offsets stick way out, like 2"+
