Pic Request: 0 offset 8.5" wheels w/ non-sas fenders

[Function_7]

Hey Friends,
I'm lookin' for as many pics as possible of 8.5" wide wheels with a zero offset on standard (non-sasquatch) fenders--I need to convince my wife the poke wouldn't be too aggressive

Here is +18 lol. So would be slightly more poke than this.

17x8.5 +18
Non sas, no lift, 35's

Also to add..I'm pretty happy I didn't go 0 offset, 18 was plenty poke imo. But go for it!

interested in this conversation too - for those who might know, if Tayzor had 11.5 inch tires on those same 8.5 +18 wheel, would there be exactly one inch less poke? The tire/wheel offset calculators I have seen/used don't really answer this question. If I knew I could get one inch less poke than Tayzor's just by using a thinner tire, it would help alot - OP, I hope the answer to this post would also help your original question since you are asking about poke - for example, if you went with an 8 inch wheel, do you score .5 inch less poke instantly - happy wife, somewhat more happy life?

This is a good point, I assume 1/2 inch less poke with 11.5" tires--the other 1/2" would be on the inner half of the tire, but I'm not an expert

haha, yes that does make sense to me now that you mention it!

0 is too much poke on non-sas. +12 is perfect for Sas fenders

first is +55 non sas. Second is +12 Non Sas. Third is +12 with Sas flares

55 - 0 = 55m which is the same as 2.16535" of poke. Lots of poke going from 55 to 0 offset.

Great reference pics. I'm assuming these are all on 8.5" wheels with 12.5" tires?

Actually, It's 2.67717" (68 mm) because I'm going from a 7.5" wheel to an 8.5" wheel, so I'd have to include an extra 1/2" of poke for that too

First is 7” wide, Whatever Base wheels are.
Second wheels are 9” wide. Tires are 11.5” on width

awesome! This is great for reference. An 8.5" wide wheel with 0 offset would only poke 6 mm more (less than 1/4") than wheels that are 9" wide with +12 offset, -- so probably not very noticeable
