if you go with your original planned setup, be sure to post some pics

Thanks for the reply!

I'm not lowered currently. I've always liked the look of wide tires, so I thought this might look good. But I'm positive you know more than me, so I will take that into consideration haha.

I could get the same rims with a 40 offset, now if I'm understanding offset correctly, would that stick out less? Would I maybe have rubbing issues at that offset?

I'm trying to go for a more aggressive look, so I thought 9.5 would be better than 8.5. Open to looking at other options though.
