I am looking to order a set of 18x9.5 +12 I am just wondering if they fit? I don't see too much talk about positive offsets. Any help is appreciated, Carid website doesn't have them as compatible with my vehicle.

Looking at the Black Rhino Chamber wheels

I have a 2019 1500 limited with offroad package and air ride.

They should fit. OEM wheels are +19.
Although, compared to a stock 18x8, those will be about 1/2" closer to the UCA. If that's a problem you'd need spacers. It depends on your tire size.

They might be too sunken in, if that makes any sense. I had 18x9 +18 and my main complaint was that the tire was not flush with the fender.

What look are you going for? Do you want the tire flush with the fender? Or to stick out? Or to sink in?

Also as mentioned above, my tire was very close to the upper control arm. I could not go any wider without the use of spacers. Consider that for your tire plans.

I'm running 22's with a +10 offset and 305-45 tires and
they tuck just inside my wheel wells.

I wanted it to be flush or stick out slightly. I felt that -18 would be too much but I wasn’t sure.

what size tires did you have on you +18 setup? I am looking to push 35's or close to it. So depending what yours were the one I am looking at are +12 I should have more wiggle room... also would i just be able to add a spacer to push it out a little? not sure about the cons of spacers, but like I said I don't want it to protrude too much

I had the stock Rebel tires with the +18 setup.

I had to switch to a -12 setup, and I was able to fit 35x12.5 with a 2 inch level. The tires are now pretty flush with the fender.

Going to try and cancel it because I don't want the -18 offset anymore.
