Would go with -12 or +12 offset with this set up?

Hi,

My limited 4x4 has the air suspension and I installed the revel leveling links. The front is now 1.75" higher.

I'm looking at the 20x9 mamba m14 wheels. They are only offered in -12 or +12 offset (I would have preferred +0 offset). I will be running 305/55/20 m/t tires. What offset do you recommend to avoid rubbing?

I know folks commented that they have had no rubbing with 305s on stock wheels, but with my luck I'll have a rubbing issue.

Thanks :)
 
Positive offsets almost always offer more clearance than negative. 305 is going to be really close at -12, here a pic of a 33 which is actually 32.75" on a -12 stock suspension without the offroad package, a 305 is 33.25" , I'd be willing to bet the -12 with the 305 and your 1.75 front lift will clear. The other thing to keep in mind is more negative offset means more road grime and rocks kicked up on the side of your truck from your tires.

Here are my new wheels with a +12 offset. 20 x 9 with a 285/60/20 tire. Sit perfect IMO just flush to top of fenders and outside edge of mudflaps. You still see the tires sticking out a bit when you walk up from behind but you save the paint. Best combo IMO. I am not leveled though but plan on doing 2"
