Hello, first time posting. Been looking through some other topics. Overall I want to know that if I put a set of method 314’s, 17x7.5 with 25+ offset with my truck being levelled with a fox 2.0 coilover kit, and currently sitting in LT 265 70 17 wild peaks that I won’t have an issue of hitting my crash bars when turning at full lock. I really don’t want to get into the situation of cutting/ adding aftermarket crash bars.
Also any pics of trucks with 25 offset would be sick to see the wheel poke even tho I roughly know what it will be.
thanks

If you're looking at 7.5" wide wheels with +25mm offset, you won't have poke, but you'll still clear the intrusion beams

okay thanks for the reply, I have a little trouble trying to work out offset/tire poke when the wheel width changes from the stock size. now I'm actually thinking of the method 316 in 17x8, 25 offset. I find this one easy to work out as its the same wheel size as stock just a 30 mm difference in offset which I think should work fine with my set up of 265 70 17, fox level and having just enough wheel poke without it being crazy, and lastly not wanting any rub on the crash bars, please correct me if im wrong haha cheers mate

I have a very similar setup. RC 2.5" level, Icon Vector 17x8.5s +25 offset and they definitely rub the slightest bit but only full lock backing out a driveway on 265/70/r17s. When researching i found a common issue that came into play was how big the tires actually measured. Even though they are all listed as 265/70/r17 there will be some slight variance due to tread size and such. The goodyears I have are pretty knobby and rub ever so slightly but with readjusting the stock crash bar trick I'm sure they wouldn't rub in my case. There is the slightest amount of poke (pics in page) in my setup but barely past the well, perfect imo. The rubbing is not a common enough problem for me to worry about messing with the crashbars though.
