I’m wanting to go with BFG KM3 35/11/15 tires on Hostile wheels and don’t want to deal with any rubbing. What offset do I need to go with? Zero? +13?
Thanks!
 
Let this be your guide. And YouTube/google can teach you all you need to know on the wheel side. The tire side is where you will need those that came before you.

Your stock wheel is a 4+3 offset in wheels is 15 millimeters (+15 mm)

See attachment below!!!

Send pics when you get it done????

These are the ones Im considering as well. +13 means your stance will get wider by 2 MM than the stock wheel. Likely not noticeable to the human eye but better for 35's I would think... I am far from the expert but learning every day.

Check out this thread near the bottom, very good info.

 
Unless you are creating a pavement princess true 35's will rub on the front

I’m looking at the same wheel…nice!
 
Another question…what is the difference between UTVs and lite truck tires?
 
Nice….where did you get them…every site I went to went from 32 to 35???
Tire rack. You will have to call them. It always shows one or two in stock but they had more than they show online when I called. They measure 32.75 inches with the tape measure in case you wondered.

DOT (light truck) tires have stiffer side walls and typically weigh more. UTV tires are a better ride in rocks. If you are legally on the road I think you will need DOT
 
Those of you looking at wheels be aware that the stock offset is NOT a 4+3 as mentioned above. Your stock offset is a 6+1 which means 6" are to the inside of the face of the hub and 1" is to the outside of the hub face. My advice would be to stay away from any tire greater than a 33", that's about as far as you want to go unless you want to spend money on your suspension. There are several threads here talking about what some of us have done with wheels and tires. I would do a search to see if any of this helps you with your decision.
 
Long travel kit or 2” forward a-arms will be your best bet if going with 35s. Spend the extra money and do it right.
