Question LIFTED FS BRONCO WHEEL OFFSET?

I have a 94' eddie bauer bronco. I have a 6" rough country lift and i have 35X12.50 mud rovers. I want to have a good offset but not too wide. Anyone know what offset that would be? 15X10 wheels. Thanks

well first i would get 15x8s, of course i run 12.5s on a 10 in rim but i like to air down a lot and an 8 in rim would hold the bead better. anyway, id say a 3.75 in backspacing is what your lookin for, mines lower than that but they stick out a lot.

I am stickin with the 15X10 wheel, i dont really use my truck that much to where i would have to air down. That offset would be diffent on my truck. It is vehicle specific. I think what usualy is used on a bronco is a 4"-5" offset. I dont really know for sure. Someone please post soon, i need to get this thing lifted. And im not doing it with my 33's on stock wheels, it would look a bit funny.

95% of your standard 15" wheels will have a 3.75" offset. If you bump up to 16's , most of them have a 4.5" offset. 3.75 will look alot better then 4.5.

yeah i dont see why you dont think 3.75 would look good, you do know that 3.75 will stick out further then 4 or 4.5 right? just making sure cause some people get backspacing backwards. And yes its vehicle specific but not by much for most trucks. Either way its not gnna be much different of you pick 3.75 or 4, both are fine
