Question Rim Offset questions

I looked around on here but it is hard to find some stuff that has to do with 8 lug.

Im looking to lower the truck 3/5 kit from western and I am curious to what offset is safe and what size rim and tire. This is going to be my dd and I dont care for rubber bands for tires but want a clean look.

Help me please before my brain explodes.

Thanks all.

Examples and pics are a great help too! Not sure if I should just keep the ones on it and do tires?

Re: Rim Offset questions

A good tire shop will come to your garage with their Off Set Tool and give you an accurate measurement of a recommended rim and tire size.
With the tool, you can be sure there will be no rubbing on fully extended turning

If they won't come? They don't get the business
