i have searched around and honestly i dunno if im just missing it or not seeing it clearly stated
i am looking at 18x8 wheels with a 35 offset
according to the calculator thats 5.87578616352 inches
im running 2wd sheetmetal, and already had plans to flare bed sides due to the fact im running escalade 18's(which i couldnt seem to find specs on very well) and they will rub if i dont
any help is appreciated

found this info on a Ebay ad, the 31mm on calculator comes out to 5.71855345912
according to this they will actually fit better...correct?

My truck is running stock 18x8 Nissan Titan 18x8 +25 wheels on 215/35 rubber. Front and rear are rolled, but not pulled and they do not rub.
Side note : truck is static dropped, running -1.5

BTW, stock escalade 18s are 18x8 +31, which will tuck 6mm more than my current wheel setup

yea, i seen on the ebay add that they were 31
so a 35 would tuck even better correct?

Yes, but you have to be careful about how much rim you're stuffing under the truck. With the 215/45 tires I was running at the same ride height, it would rub in the front inside under sharp cornering. You'd have to run ridiculously short tires like I have, or run the risk of having to cut inner fender wells for clearancing

It's getting tubs as soon as it comes off jacketstands
Air ride should be done in next few weeks
Figure on running either 215/35's or 225/40's
Got 225/40's on escalade wheels on it now

Good luck finding 6-lug wheels in anything more than +31mm. Yes, ideally +35mm would be better, but you'll be hard pressed to find any, especially in 18's.
I had no narrow my rear about 2" and I'm running 18x8's with 2wd sheetmetal and 215/40 series tires. My KMC wheels are high offset (+35).
Note, I used to run escalade wheels and they rubbed when I was bagged with the stock axle. I ran 225/45/17's.
I have stock spindles in the front.
