Well looks like I have to buy some new wheels. Got my eibach lift on and i have 265/70/17. Problem now is my tire is waaay too close to the upper control arm and knuckle and pretty sure it's rubbed a couple times. Time for some more offset as i'm not putting spacers on a truck let alone one i'm gonna offroad.

Would +12 work? i'm looking at getting the black rhino arsenal wheels. They are also 17x9.5 though

It would but would stick out even further...you sure it's +12 or -12? Minus 12 would really hang it out there:)

EDIT

Just noticed you mentioned that the wheels are the 17x9.5 ET+12 Arsenal.

The Arsenal is going to sit out about 2.5-inches compared to stock so you may have some rubbing on the crush bars. You'll free up about an 1-inch of room towards the suspension, so you'll be good there.

the back spacing on black rhino arsenal +12 offset is 5.7 in. thought for clearance it should be no more than 5 in.

The Fuel Militia looks similar and the size would probably work better for ya.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but OP - which wheels did you end up going with?

The wheels in your avatar look a lot like 4runner Off-road wheels, but they could just be a look-a-like..

Anyways - if you could provide specs and some pics that would be awesome - thanks!

More importantly 265/70 17s on stock wheels rubbing the knuckle with an Eibach level? Seems fishy to me.
