+18 offset with 6" lift?

I have got 17x9 KMC Hoss with a offset of +18. Planning to put a 6' PC lift, will they work?

Re: +18 offset with 6" lift?

On a stock Titan, yes. On a lifted Titan, use a lower offset. I would suggest using something around the -12.

Thanks for the info. I guess i got a set of 17x9 KMC Hoss in black for sale with 305/70/17 Nitto Terra Grapplers. They only got about 5000 miles on them.

They'll work fine, and I'd recommend them:

That's my little brother's truck. His wheels are 18x9 with +18mm offset wrapped in 35" Toyo M/Ts. The fit is perfect.

Yeah, his truck is really nice. It now has N-Fab steps and a Defiant light bar with a trio of Hella lights. Don't have a pic with the lights, but here's one with the light bar:

Re: +18 offset with 6" lift?

That's nice. But, I was under the impression that most lift kits needed a 4.5 inch backspacing or -12 offset. Most of the people I deal with always ask for that setup on thier lifted trucks.

Not always the case. I can clear 37s on my truck with only 3" of lift as long as I have at least 6" backspacing.
