Hi I have searched and found some post about wheel offset guides but not sure if it is for standard height Utes.I have just purchased a mn dual cab with 2in suspension lift and I am fitting a 2in body lift next
week,I am planning on running 285/75 /16 bfg km2 on Mickey Thompson classic 3 rims does anybody know what offset I will need to prevent scrubbing the rims come in the following sizes
16x8 0 offset
16x7 -8
16x8 -22
16x10 -25
Thanks I will post some pics of everything once it arrives

Why the 2" body lift, if you don't mind me asking, seems a little pointless to me, but I'm no expert so just asking?

Alright thanks will order the rims hopefully all goes to plan.the main reason for the body lift is more clearance for the wheels and also the extra height for approach and departure angles seeing as it's a tray back and there's a fair bit of overhang.will post pictures as I'm doing all the mods,thanks again

Body lifts do little to approach and departure angle. Easy enough to lift a tray or tow bar.
