Default Will this offset work with a 4/6?

Alright, when it comes to backspacing I'm ok, when it comes to offset I'm COMPLETLY LOST! I'm wondering if a 20 offset on a 22x9.5 wheel would work with my 4/6 drop? Any info y'all can give would really help me out.

Thanks,
Austin

+20, or -20? +20 should be okay. It means 20 mm offset from dead-center. Positive offset sets the wheel farther into the wheelwell. Negative offset makes the wheel stick out farther.

Alright, thanks for the info! So then a +35 wouldn't be a problem at all then either, if I'm understanding you correctly.

If your truck is 2wd, +35 would be better.

A 22x9.5 with a 20mm offset will have 6" backspacing. The same wheel with 35mm offset will have 6.6" backspacing. Definitely go with the 35mm.
